It’s another puppy shirt for Emily from Kathy & Christian!

Emily knows that these are Poodles! She refers to this as the “poodle shirt” and the other one as the “puppy shirt”. Thanks Kathy & Christian!!!

Emily just loves puppies!

This adorable puppy shirt is from Aunt Denise, Uncle Paul, Kyle & Lexi

THANKS!

Emily kissing her new white Zhu Zhu hamster named “Chunks”. She just refers to him as “white rat”. Where’s my white rat mommy?

Kissin’

Emily received a Zhu Zhu Hamster (the white one) named “Chunks” from Christian for Christmas this year!

Emily LOVES “Chunks” although she refers to him as “the white rat”. Thanks to Christian’s dad! She carries him around with her everywhere she goes and even sleeps with it.

Samantha & Matthew came over on Christmas Eve and Samantha was giving Chunks a “makeover” as she called it.

Emily received a very cool Disney Little Mermaid Vanity complete with stool from Samantha & Matthew for Christmas. She really enjoyed playing with it. It even talks.

Matthew, Samantha & Emily in front of the tree. Max refused to cooperate, probably due to sugar overload!

This was the best photo I got of the kids in front of the tree! None of them are looking at me! Oh well. Max & Emily are wearing last year’s version of Sandy’s holiday pajama design with Santa Claus & wreaths. Matthew & Samantha are wearing the 2009 Smiling Snowmen design by Sandy.

Emily enjoying her vanilla bean ice cream (right before bed). Smart parents that we are!

Steve reading “Twas the Night Before Christmas”. He is obviously holding their attention for at least a few seconds … the rest of the time was pretty chaotic.

Spending a warm, sunny Christmas afternoon at the local park with friends; Emily would like to wish you & yours a very Merry Christmas!!

We went to Christmas in the Park in downtown San Jose this evening with some friends. (www.christmasinthepark.org).

Emily getting ready to go to The Los Gatos Carriage Ride tonight

This was the same outfit she wore last year to the carriage ride

I kind of squeezed her into it.

In her car seat giving me a cheesy grin

Saying, “Let’s Go, Mom!” I am no longer “mommy”. She calls me “mom”.

Enjoying a chocolate chip cookie before the Carriage ride

A box arrived from the Oma today for Max & Emily with some pre-Christmas gifts

They were very excited about opening it

Emily actually had the box half opened when I got to her

Emily got a beautiful fuscia & orange princess dress with a soft, fluffy tuille skirt

She was very proud of her new dress!
