Pretty, pretty Christmas princess

As mentioned in a previous post, Adelynn had many Christmas dresses to choose from. She looked so cute in her different Christmas outfits, and we were even able to get a couple of her smiling.


Adelynn is holding the "CD" player that Santa brought her. It plays all sorts of Sesame Street and children songs. Elmo, Bert and Ernie, Abby and Zoe and Cookie Monster all have their own CDs. We thought that it played the lyrics, too, but it's just instrumental. No matter, Adelynn still loves it. Her song of choice right now is "Hoppy, Hoppy." As in, "If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands." We then move to Ehnie and ducky ("Rubber Ducky") and then Cookie ("C is for Cookie"). It's quite the little system we have. I should also mention that this is mostly done in the bathroom, as these songs have become her potty music of choice.

We were so excited to get a nice picture of her looking at the camera (mostly) and smiling. This is one of the beautiful dresses Paula got her.

Nice view of the dress here. This came from one of Adelynn's friends (and one of my teacher friends) from Paula's house. This has been in the closest for a year (along with the other dresses Paula got her). Adelynn loved to twirl and twirl in this dress. Also, if you said, "That's a pretty dress, Adelynn," she would lift it up to show you. Hmm....

The snowman was a huge hit the first couple of weeks of Christmas decorations (which are still up, by the way, and will be until next weekend). We found snowman "parts" all over the living room, and then Adelynn would try to stack him back up again.
