Christmas Card Pictures

Our BIG girl is now a forward-facer!!! We installed the seat Saturday morning, so the inaugural ride was on our way to take our Christmas pictures! Our friend Teri was so kind as to go with us and take the pictures. We were able to take 75 total! I've narrowed it down to several of my favorites. However, THE picture that will go in the Christmas card isn't listed below. You'll just have to wait for the card to come in the mail to see it! Enjoy!

Opelika Christmas Parade 2010

Today was Opelika's annual Christmas parade. It's so much fun being back in the small town, and participating in these small town traditions with friends. Aside from being really cold, we hope to make this a new tradition of ours.

Even with a red nose, Leighton was being such a trooper in the cold.

Enjoying the parade with our good friends Teri, Jimmie, and Ryan.
The Chic-fil-a cow!

The Dickey's

Showing Leighton a snowman float.

All bundled up together!

That's my sweetie!

16 Month Bear Pictures

She was in a much better picture-taking mood for these. :)

15 Month Bear Pictures

I just realized that I never posted these. She was especially rambuctious during this picture session, so much so, that we didn't even get a picture of her face!

Thanksgiving 2010

This isn't from Thanksgiving, but I thought this was sweet. Daddy read Leighton her night time story and she's so excited!

What a pretty girl!

I was messing with the settings on the camera with this one. I caught a very sweet picture too. :)

This year we made the trip to Dawsonville, GA to Jonathan's Aunt Janice's house. Not only did Leighton get to meet a lot of her family, but I did as well. After almost 9 years, it was about time! There was a big crowd and lots of good food! Here are lots of pictures from today!

A cousin was giving Leighton her baby to her, and I caught this precious smile on her face. She surely loves her baby!

She didn't want to touch the bunny at first. :(

Now she's okay!

Now she likes bunny!

She pooped out almost right away!

Funny Pictures of Leighton

Silly girl likes to lay on the floor now.
She lays her head down too. It either means, "No Mommy, I don't want any more food" or "Don't be mad at me, look at my cute face." She's a smart little one!

Silly girl laying on the floor again!

She thinks it's so funny!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this one!

She put the hat on her head herself!

Looking like a big girl, holding her baby doll and standing up so straight.

I think she looks just like me in this one. There's actually a picture of me looking down at my baby doll at about age 2. She looks a lot like I did in that picture.

Tonight at dinner, we went to a hole-in-the-wall Mexican place that had only 1 highchair, which of course was being used. Look at our big girl sitting up in the big girl chair all by herself! She didn't know what to think of it at all! lol

This is from another angle.

Leighton the Walker

She has become quite the little walker here lately. I finally got a couple of her steps on video. What a long way she's come! We're so proud of her!
