Christmas Happenings

We took Adelynn to the Romeoville Winter Wonderland festival last Friday night. All in all, it was pretty lame as she was too little to do any of the activities and we waited in line for about 45 minutes to get her picture taken with a pretty creepy Santa. But, it was only $4 as opposed to the $20 scams at the mall. Oh well.

Adelynn wanted no part of sitting on creepy Santa's lap, so we compromised. Lucky me.


In front of the elf house...just her size!

Seconds before she turned around and tried to attack the penguins...

We took Adelynn with us to get our tree this year. It was pretty cold, so we got her all bundled up in her snowsuit, hat, gloves...the whole works! She was completely unable to move and reminded me of Randy in A Christmas Story..."I can't put my arms down!" She was not too pleased with the whole adventure. She fell asleep in her stroller at the tree farm and pretty much missed the whole thing. She did like the chocolate chip cookies I bought her afterwards though!

"Are you kidding me?"

Napping and letting mommy and daddy do all the work!

And just because it's funny and to give her a reason to hate me when she's a teenager...here is what Adelynn looks like after a nap...
