Gifts From Maine & Nana Ann!!

Talk about dressing in style. Check out this outfit from Alyzabeth's Aunt T & Uncle George from Maine! The top and pants are just too darn CUTE and of course we LOVE the colors!

We're planning our trip to Maine for later this month so Alyzabeth can visit all her Maine Family!!

We have yet to decide if we're driving or flying. I think "daddy" is leaning towards flying and regardless of which we do - WE NEED TO DECIDE SOON! (hint - hint to you know who)








Nana Ann said she was running to town to pick up a couple items she was needing. I guess that included "needing" to pick up something for Alyzabeth while she was at it :)

My Auntie Jean, also from Maine, sent Alyzabeth this beautiful dress and winter coat!!! Thank You Auntie Jean! We'll be seeing you soon!



Alyzabeth (with some assistance) put in some practice time in how to properly open gifts before Christmas gets here by tearing into her birthday and welcome home gifts from her Auntie Jean! The girl is just way too gentle but I'm sure that will change in time :)

Alyzabeth is so beautiful...those eyes! I loved the firsts posts and I bet you can't wait to see her in all of those new clothes!

Donna said...

Oh, it's so great to see AA smile and laugh like that after the rough start you had! I think she would have been perfectly happy with a box full of tissue paper! When my nephew was little, he liked the boxes better than the gifts!

Alyson,
You are hilarious! The attention span of a two year old huh? I totally get it. It's amazing how quick these little girls can be. I turn my back for one minute to post a comment and BAM she's into the electronic stuff. Could be all the shiny bright lights!
