Christmas Is Coming

Only 11 days till Christmas! I am excited. I am almost ready, but as always, it has been fun wrapping, and decorating, and card making, and baking. I used to always wonder at how people got it all done, but now that I don't work full time (not that Macy isn't work 24/7, but it's a little different) I realize a little more how people do it. Some of the baking I've done are Snicker Doodle's, Chocolate Crinkles, Peanut Butter and M&M cookies, and Oatmeal and M&M cookies. We also have received homemade chocolates and homemade Almond Rocha - which was so delicious that I think I will try making it next year.

In other news, Macy had her shots yesterday. She has got a little fever from them, but otherwise she was great. She cried a little, and then was back to smiling and charming all the ladies around. She weighs in at 12.6 lbs. She is just below the 25th percentile for weight, but at the 50th for height. Tall and skinny, every girl's dream!

I hope you are all enjoying the Christmas season. Happy Holidays from the Lamonts!

The Roll Over

I don't know why there isn't sound for these videos. She is yakkin' away!

Penny for your thoughts

This girl looks like she's got some serious thinking going on.

Cousins!

A few more photos from our visit to Claresholm (it's a small town about an hour south of Calgary).
Anderson may look happy in this picture, but we had to force him to hold Macy and take the picture.

A cute one of Ruthie.

Santa Claus Parade

Last weekend Macy and I headed down to Claresholm, Alberta with Grandma Lamont to visit the Leishmans. We had a great weekend and on Saturday we went to the Fort McLeod Annual Santa Claus Parade. Apparently it is the biggest one in Western Canada. It was great! The weather was nice, the parade wasn't too long, they handed out candy, and best of all we got to see Santa! I would go again.

Waiting for the parade to start! Cousins Henry, Anderson, and Ruthie, and Auntie Jen. Macy is under Ruthie in the double stroller.


Hanging out!
So excited for the candy! One of the floats was for an 'Eden's Funeral Home' and they even threw out individually packaged mints with their name on it. I kept one for Eden's sake.


Ruthie all bundled up.

Some of the fun floats. I didn't get a good picture of Santa, but he was on a good float. The Grinch also came to the parade and he looked pretty cool.

A good Daddy and Daughter shot.

Poor Macy has been a little sick with a cold this week, which is hopefully going away. Chris had Thursday and Friday off and we enjoyed having him around. We rented 'Grown-Ups' the movie and had a good laugh. We still have no snow on the ground and are having great November weather. Only one week until Harry Potter 7 Part One comes out and we already have our babysitter booked; thanks Grandma Lamont!
