Another outfit

Off to another Christmas party (#9 of the season!) looking appropriate
for hanging out with her Norwegian- heritage relatives :)

Paul

In the Jones household, we are fans of Newman's Own products, specifically the peach salsa. Recently we tried the regular salsa, which wasn't nearly as tasty as the flavored ones. I also bought cheese dip last month which was flat-out disgusting (Evan didn't mind it), but overall, we love the products, thanks mostly to the exposure they get at our family gatherings.

As with all the other pre-made stuff we eat, Olivia is very interested in the packaging. The cereal boxes, syrup labels or pictures on jars are often the subject of conversation while we eat (which is usually just the two of us at lunch).

A few weeks ago, she asked me about the guy on the salsa and I told her it was Paul Newman. I told her he was an actor and then a philanthropist (new word!) and was now dead. That was about the extent of our conversation. She mostly enjoyed looking at his funny hat on the label. Last weekend, Evan was home for lunch and we had the salsa out. He, not knowing about our previous conversations, was a little surprised when Olivia said, "Can I see Paul Newman?"

12 Outfits, continued

Jammies so cute it's a shame they're just for sleeping!

The 12 (or so) Outfits of Christmas

We were given an insane amount of hand-me-down clothes from our very stylish, now 5-year-old niece. As I pulled out the 2T winter stuff, I was shocked by the number of Christmas themed/colored outfits. Since I can't count on this stuff fitting Olivia next year, I have been making an extra effort to get her in each of these outfits and jammies at least once this holiday season. Here are the days we have so far - stayed tuned to see the others :)

"Cheese!" in her big girl bed

Candy Cane!

Modeling on the potty chair/step-stool

Snuggle Bunny, indeed.

Eating cooked spinach, out of a shot glass, in adorable jammies. Not something you see everyday...
(BTW, she loves the spinach - this is not a force-feed scenario!)

Hoping that at least one of those presents are for her... 

Tu-tu cute!
