Merry Christmas from the Jones!

To all our friends and family: we love you and hope that the joy of the Savior fills your lives!

Luke 2:14

"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom He is pleased!"

Baking Cookies

So today, since it is FREEZING outside, we decided to bake some cookies. I gave AW a little dough to play with and cut out star shapes. Her favorite parts of the process were mixing, playing in the flour, and of course eating!!! One of the words she says pretty consistently is the Spanish word for stir which is bate (thanks Dora!). So here is Ally demonstrating how to bate:

Having fun:

Making a mess:

Eating!

More Mommy!

(this is the sign for more, definitely one of her favorite signs!)

Happy 2nd Day of December!

No, I am not going to post a picture every day in December (at least I don't think I am :) I just loved this one of Anne Wesley all bundled up to go out and play yesterday. It is finally cold and feels like Christmas! When you ask Ally what she is getting for Christmas she says a dog; not so sure if that's happening, I hope she won't be disappointed. She is also now calling herself Yaya. Poor kid, she's probably so confused b/c we call her so many things but really I think she is trying to say Ally maybe? Anyway, we hear a lot of "I, yaya" or she waves us off and wants Yaya to do it herself.

Happy 1st Day of December!
