My Cheese!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Uncle Bill and Aunt Alex gave me a cool cheese (kid's digital camera) for Christmas. It's a cheese because you say "Cheese!" when you take a picture of someone. Makes sense, right?! Anyway, I'm learning how to use it, and it's very cool. If I have a blog, then I should have a cheese to take pictures and post to the blog. And while the pictures aren't necessarily professional quality (partially due to me not holding the camera still very well), I'm learning a lot! Here's a sample of my recent photos ...

Dadda tried out the cheese first ...

It's Momma!
It's Dadda!

It's Baby!

The cheese also has these built-in picture frames which are pretty cool.

Sometimes I don't frame-up very well ...

It's Millie the Mouse!

Kody Dog - There he is!

Dadda was video-ing me taking pictures - Silly Dadda!

It's Aubie!

It's blurry Momma & Dadda!

Santa's Ride Down Our Street

Santa rode down our street in a fire truck on Christmas Eve. It was so cool!

This is my new Belle doll from Mr. David and Ms. Wanda,
our across-the-street neighbors

I see Santa coming!

There's Santa in the fire truck!

Collier Christmas in Atlanta

Momma, Dadda and I went to Atlanta on Sunday to visit Uncle Bill & Aunt Alex and cousins Olivia, Nicholas and Sophia.

Playing with Olivia's dollhouse

I enjoyed a little computer time on the high stool.

Opening presents ... It's a Vtech kids' digital camera!

And a book - Where the Wild Things Are ... A classic!

Ta-da!

Enjoying Christmas together ...

Where's Reese?!

Olivia, Sophia, Reese & Nick - Say "Cheese!"

My Class Christmas Party

On Thursday, my class (the Turtles) had our class Christmas party at school. It was lots of fun!

We all had special Christmas lunch together -

Chicken nuggets, string cheese and pretzel sticks!
This is my friend Riley with his grandmother.

These are my twin friends Mary Glynn & Grayson.

This is Kendall, Hayden and Will.

Me and Kendall

Aunt Heather came to my party.

And look who else came?!

Apparently Dadda forgot about how I'm NOT a big Santa fan?!

Ms. Sarah helped me pour reindeer food into my bag.

Dadda and I opened my gift to our classroom.
We all gave a gift so we have new toys to play with after the holidays.
Dadda read a Christmas story to Kendall and me.

Each class painted a canvas for their mommies and daddies.
Ours is a reindeer - Footprint head with handprint antlers.
This is our December door decoration.

I'm a lamb.

My Visit with Santa Claus

Last night, Momma, Dadda and I went to visit Santa Claus. While he was much nicer than Aubie Claus, I'm still not sold yet. Maybe next year! But I sure do hope he comes to my house on Christmas Eve - I'll be asleep then!

This is how you kill time in the Santa line ...

Playing with Momma's sunglasses!

So as you can see, I'm not too thrilled about this whole Santa picture thing ...
At least I'm not sitting on his lap now, yet I'm still held captive ...
Seriously, is this ever going to end?!
(I think Dadda is still trying to get one last picture right now.)

Finally, my great escape ...

Here's the final product:
(This is a photo of the Santa photo; Dadda is going to scan it later.)

After sitting with Santa, I got to ride on the carousel!

My reindeer's name is Frosty.

The carousel is super-fun!
