Traveling to Ripon!

Hello Family and Friends,

I hope that the holiday cheer and spirit has found you. I know it has for me and my family. We're doing great! I'm finally big enough to start to understand the holidays! We went to spend a whole week at Grandma & Grandpa's house for a combined Thanksgiving and Christmas. We had a wonderful time. I got to show off my new baby sister to everyone. Mom and Dad even let me introduce her too...Baby Sydney. Not just baby or Sydney but you have to put it together and say Baby Sydney. =)

The week went by really fast. I got to help Grandpa feed the fish on a couple of the days. I really like to do that. Plus Mommy started to teach me about the potty. I had some good days and some bad days but I'm starting to get it. I'm still not 100% ready to do it yet but at least I know what I'm getting myself into. Mommy keeps trying to bribe me with chocolate and stickers to continue. Maybe one of these days I'll surprise her and just do it myself!

Thanksgiving day lots of family came over to have dinner and hang out. We got to eat lots of yummy food and stay up late. Saturday was a big day too. We went to a party for Auntie Tiffy and the new baby. Uncle TJ even let me play with one of Baby Wyatt's new toys. I felt pretty special. That afternoon I was too excited to open presents that I couldn't take a nap. Unfortunately it caught up with me and I fell asleep on Mommy at the dinner table. After a little while, I woke up and we were ready to open presents!! Both Sydney and I are really loved. We got lots of toys, dolls, and clothes. We couldn't have asked for better presents!

I suppose I should let Sydney get a few words in here too...Hi everyone! I'm the baby around here or at least that's what everyone says. I've been focusing on growing bigger and learning new things. I really love to look at lights and objects with stark contrasts. I've also been having fun by getting Mommy and Daddy to make goofy sounds at me and I have to smile and laugh at them. I'm figuring out how to use my voice too by making funny sounds. All in all, I'm healthy and happy.

Hope you all have a Merry Christmas if we don't get on here before then. Mommy is going back to work next week and we're really going to miss spending all day with her.

Love always,
Adelaide & Sydney (Trav & Tiff too)
