christmas party!!

at our bible study christmas party today...  nora is in this ADORABLE dress, and i really think she knows how cute she looks in it.  it's got a little bit of tuelle, so i think she feels like a princess!  it's so cute.

yesterday, david came home from work in his uniform, and she grabbed his cover and put it on!  what a sweet girl....  maybe fortelling???

 nora has been repeating everything i say recently.  it can be very cute.  it also makes me think of the song we used to sing as kids "oh be careful little mouth what you say".  thankfully the repeated comments have been fairly benign so far, so it just makes me careful about what i say!  

nora is just so much fun!  we are watching little einsteins right, and it apparantly is one she knows well, because she anticipates things that are going to happen.  it's about the three little pigs, so whenever a house gets blown down, she says "oh nooooo!!!"  that's what the video is about!  

last night, i carried on a presley family christmas tradition for the second time by myself (the first since getting married!!)  i made pepparkakker (a swedish cookie).  some of my favorite memories surround the making of this cookie.  it was so fun to make, and nora enjoys them!  i gave her one when she got up from her nap, and she walked right back there after she was done with it, asking for more please!  i made the cookies when she was in bed, but i plan to carry on the tradition with her as she gets older!
