November

November....well it was cold, and pretty sure we had snow. (when haven't we had snow this winter season?)

 There were ballet classes for Audra. She is quite the little dancer and loves going every week. She then comes home and dances around and shows off her "moves".

 Audra got her first school pictures. Wow, they have certainly changed since I was in school. The choice and choosing our favourite was hard.

 Someone loves playing school and being the teacher. My favourite is when she asks a question, and you go to answer, and she says, you didn't raise your hand Mom! Sorry. Also Eleanor is not the best student and continually disrupting the class. lol.

 This one, gets into EVERYTHING!!!!! Has to be watched like a hawk, because you never know what she is going to get into. She of course doesn't like being in the playpen, so can't be contained. Started walking a bit, and taking a few steps here and there.

 But this little face melts my heart. Her first Starbucks date with mom!

 Learning how to zurber and make noises with her lips. Hmmm.... wonder where she is learning that from?

 Big surprise!

 Kinda using utensils. Generally picks the food off of it and eats it that way. But still cute to see her with utensils.

I may have made some additions to our Elf on the Shelf. I girly'ed it up. I figured Audra would understand the whole elf on the shelf this year, and wanted her to have a girl elf. And I was not supporting the $10 skirt available for purchase.

November, like the past couple of months, passed in a blur. At the end of the month, Jamie and Audra went and cut down a christmas tree. There was lots of selective decorating this year, because Eleanor would have had a field day with all the decorations. She wasn't too bad with the tree thankfully. Hoping by next year, we will be able to put out all the christmas cheer and joys and not have to worry about it getting mauled and destroyed.
