Mah-Jongg

We received a Mah-Jongg set for Christmas. Liliana was really excited when she saw the "China writing" on the box, so she set out to learn how to play.


Her face says it all (pictures really are worth a thousand words)!

Daddy's Cinderella

After cutting Liliana's hair, we looked in the mirror and she exclaimed, "I love my Disney princess hair!" Then she ran out of the room to her bedroom. She appeared a few minutes later wearing her princess dress, requesting to dance with daddy. She put in this CD (Cinderella by Steven Curtis Chapman), and danced several dances with her daddy. I took the opportunity to capture the special moments on film. These are moments we will cherish always. Daddy's little princess.

Princess Liliana

The ladybug wanted to get her hair cut again. And just like last time she requested a "Disney Princess haircut!" Mommy decided to cut her hair this time, into a really cute princess haircut. Here is her new cut!


Dressed as a princess, looking at her dress.


Totally cute little, bitty, toes!


And, of course a girl always has to have some awesome shoes. It's all about the shoes!

Christmas Eve

Christmas at our house is usually rather quiet, except for the squeals of excitement from Liliana. Since we happen to live in the middle of the United States, and the ladybug's grandparents live on either coast, we often do not spend Christmas with them unless we travel out of state. This year we opted to stay home and enjoy a cold snowy Christmas with just the three of us.

Liliana started by chatting it up with Santa through a video message he sent her.


She then got her delicious cookies ready on a special Santa plate and placed them near the tree.


Finally, she placed a special Santa key on the door so that Santa could get into our house since we do not have a chimney, to deliver toys and gifts.


After we all went to bed, Santa placed all of the gifts (both his and ours) under the tree.


And then... Liliana woke up!


~~Aloha!
