Christmas 2010

Shae helped pick out the tree this year. Matt wanted to go get it alone, "easier" he said.  But where's the fun in easier?  

The Sorensen family made the trip out for Shae's first Christmas and it was great having everyone here.  It made her first one so special.  She got so many gifts, she didn't finish opening them until the next night.  She didn't really 'get' the gift opening thing, but she's loving all of the new stuff.  She even learned to say a new word, "dirt".  She loves to throw away her own diapers, and I usually say "dirty" when she throws it in the pail. Now everything is 'dirt'!  I've also caught her throwing away baby powder, clothes, toys, etc.  Sometimes in the diaper pail, sometimes in the hamper. She is constantly making me laugh.




Thanksgiving

Aunt Chrissy visited us for Thanksgiving this year (yay!).  I was sick (boo).  Either way, Shae loved seeing her Auntie.  

I'm starting a blog...

Inspired by my cousin Melissa, I've decided to start a blog.  I love following hers and have been meaning to start one all year.  So I made it my new year's resolution ...

I want a way to remember all of the things Shae does, they are so hard to keep track of!  It's hard living so far away from family, and I think this is a great way to keep everyone up to date on all of the happenings in our lives.  I will try my best to keep all of my postings short and sweet.
