The day it snowed in Seattle. Liisa was mesmerized by the snow :)
Discovering her feet
For the longest time she only played with her feet when she had her
diaper off
Taking pictures for the Christmas card
Getting ready to go out, Liisa is wearing her new hat
I think this hat makes her look like an acorn (tammetõru)
This is the Christmas card I made
We went to a Christmas party and Santa Clause gave Liisa a present.
Unfortunately the camera was not cooperating so by the time it took the
picture Liisa did not look so happy any more. I can assure that when
she first sat into Santa´s lap she looked way happier
Liis and her present. It was wrapped in the kind of paper I felt that
she could rip apart on her own.
Of course there was so much going on that she was not too interested in
it...
Kadi, the hostess of the Christmas party
and Kadi´s younger daughter Emily (3 months old)
Toomas, Katrin´s son
our family at Kadi´s place
On 23rd of December we bought a Christmas tree. We were really lucky
and got the very last tree they had. The first place we went to was all
sold out. The tree was not perfect but it smelled good and Liisa loved
it :)
It also tasted pretty good
We cheated and opened some of our presents on the 23rd. Liida got this:
Christmas eve morning
We walked downtown and went on a Carousel ride. WE did the same thing
the year before when I was still pregnant. This is our holiday
tradition :)
Since Liisa is very little we sat on a sleigh rather than on the horses
In the evening we opened more presents. Liisa got pajamas and she
unwrapped it herself.
She was more interested in the wrapping paper. Getting new pajamas is a
new tradition for Christmas
David got some presents and one of them was to be shared with Liisa
Lutt (pacifier) in a mouth.
Liisa is showing off her new longies (villased püksid). These
match the acorn hat
Christmas Day. Liisa got some stuff but it was not in a stocking
because I did not have time to finish it.. She has a taggie, it became
instant favorite
Liisa and David share a new toy in the bath
David is having some dessert. It is maple candy (really just a lump of
maple sugar) swimming in a pool of maple syrup
Liisa got her very first toothbrush. She knows instantly what to do
with it
I just thought she looks rather cheerful here. And she is sitting on
her own, at this point she is still wobbly
