Our Goofball

Today we made a run to the fabric store to pick up some fabric for Summer's big girl room....not a good idea around Christmas time!  It took us about a half hour waiting in line to cut fabric!!!  My little goofball kept the line of people laughing as she was the star of her own show.  She got the biggest kick out of sitting down on the shelves where fabric was stored (it was like her own size chair) and "peeking" out at people in line.  She twirled to the music in the store and she made lots of funny faces.  What a ham ;).  She definitely didn't get that from me!!!!  I think she gets it from her daddy ;)!

Little Bits from our day

Trying on a snowman hat while Christmas shopping for Grandma and Grandpa

Today we had a low key morning, which was fun!  Summer loves to dance, and so will now ask for "Kusic" (Music) and then dance to it, everything from swaying her body, to moving her head, to clapping her hands, to drumming the floor, to tapping her knees!  It is hilarious (especially in a store when music is playing!).  Anyway, today she added a new dance move....spinning.  She spun and spun and spun in circles to the music and got herself so dizzy!  I almost laughed out loud.  Anyway, of course when I went to get the video camera she stopped, but here is the tail end of her last spin.


I kept video-ing hoping to catch more spinning, but what I caught instead was just a bit of "normal" Summer, which I figured would be fun to share as well so that I remember some of mannerisms and things she does!  She loves to name EVERYTHING, and many times I really have no idea what her jabber is all about--you will see an example here, where she is naming everything, and then says a word I can't recognize, so I ask her to point to it.  I then realize she is trying to say "snowman".  At the end we play a bit of "Kaboo" (Peek-A-Boo), one of her favorite games.

SNOW!

We have quite a bit of snow here now, so after church today, Summer, Daddy, Tucker, and I went out to play in it for the first time this year.  Summer loved it!  At first, she just watched Daddy play, but by the end she was giggling, walking through the snow, helping Daddy throw snow at Mommy ;),  and enjoying how soft it was when she fell down!  She only face-planted once---she was a little surprised---but wanted to keep playing anyway!  The only time she cried was when we told her it was time to go in....it was only 23 degrees out and we didn't want her to get too cold!
