Helping Daddy pick a suit... such a good helper...

SELFIE!!

She is always so happy!!!

Ill hold it mom!!!

The flu is sweeping thru this house like a case of chicken pox!! Its most recent victim is Uncle Bucky!! We have all now officially had the flu this holiday season!! Can we be done yet!?

Today it snowed and snowed so we kept things low key except for a trip to Nordstroms to pick out a suit for Daddy. It was promised as one of his christmas presents. Eloah was, as usual, a great sport! She, Grandma and I played in the mirror while Werner tried on hundreds of suits!! The saleswoman loved Eloah and even held her in between suit fittings! I love how sweet this little girl is! She is so sweet to everyone she meets and flashes the most wonderful and infectious smiles I have ever seen!

Make Up Christmas!!

Game Night, Mosely (my Brothers dog) was in on the action...

BESTIES!!!!! 

Morning playtime with Grandpa!

Walking around with her new walker.

Can I have a hug!?! Is going to be the only game Eloah knows when she goes to kindergarden.... we all play it with her.

Go thru the tunnel!! Grandma and Grandpa bought her a real tunnel for  Christmas!

Haha!!! They both got in on the fun!!

Peek A BOOOOO!!!

SELFIE!!!

Since we had to cancel our Christmas Night dinner we decided to have a post Christmas Christmas Dinner. It was a hit!!! Seriously one of my favorite nights with family and friends ever!! We had a good ol' fashion game night and ordered some pizza. 

Eloah had been a bit fussy throughout the day but the second people started arriving she was in her best mood. She loves people.... and attention!! We all took turns holding her, walking with her, getting on the floor and playing with her. She was not at a shortage of friends by any means!!

She joined in on the game night action too! We set up her Phil and Ted table chair so she could play with us! We started with Cards Against Humanity which didnt keep her attention long but she still enjoyed being in the mix with us all!!

Aunt Les, Bj and Amanda, Amandas parents, Grandmas friend Rebecca and ERIN AND JEFF all came to play with us! It was such a fun mix of people, it is going to have to be a new Christmas tradition for sure!!!

We were all exhausted today from the fun we had last nigh!! Grandma and I managed to get out and take Eloah shopping and took care of a few returns at the mall though!!

"I Got You the Flu for Christmas"....

The "bunny-bear" I made Eloah for Christmas. I hope it she loves it as much as I do!!

Her recliner that Glamma and "popop" got for Eloah. She smiles like this every time we sit her in it!!

Daddy is here! 

And I'm so excited about it!!!

Morning laughs with Dad!!

She hates us.

Its about 2 weeks late but we finally did her monthly pictures. Now that she is mobile, its near impossible to get her to sit still or lay down. So this will have to do!! Haha!

Christmas shopping on grampas shoulders!

Trying a cucumber and loving it. No doubt she is mine!!

Mom's got the flu and Eloah is hoping to cure it with smiles!

Learning to accessorize!

This was the best part about being sick. Sharing nap time with this loveable face!!

Toast with mommy!!

Sharing with the morning news!

Moms still under the weather but we had to get some last minute Christmas gifts, so out we all went.... in our Pajamas!

Basically the flu took us all out for a few days.... here is a photo round up of whats happening in between bouts of nausea and puking!! That line in the Devil Wears Prada "Im one stomach flu away from my goal weight" is so true, I've lost 6 lbs because of this bug! Haha!! I'd still trade the sick pounds to not feel so crappy though, ew!!! Eloah has avoided it so far so cross your fingers she stays healthy!! 

 Ill keep pictures coming but writing will be minimal as we are soaking up as much family time as we can for this last week in Colorado!! Well that and that whole flu thing. Ha!

Merry Everything!! Love you all!!!
