Merry Christmas

Our friend Don brought over his new puppy a Boston terrier named Booger. Kaia was so excited every time she got a kiss from Booger. She is showing her hand where she got a kiss.

Kaia loves Curious George she takes him everywhere with us. She got a baby doll quilt from her Aunt Punkin so she decided to wrap George in it.

We had an Austrian Christmas at Aunt Punkin's

Kaia collected a bunch of tangerines and then decided to pass them out

Going to Aunt Punkin's George had to come as well obviously. How could we even think of leaving him at home alone!

We have been talking to Kaia about her full name and now she has it down pretty good. The other day she was getting into one if the cupboards that she knew she shouldn't have. I said "Kaia Grace" without even blinking she said "Lowrey". It made me laugh so here she is saying her name.
