Market Square and some holiday dancing

We spent last Saturday afternoon downtown in Market Square.

We checked out the ice skating rink around the big tree...even got to see someone propose.

Inside the PPG building. Lots of really cool gingerbread houses.


E thought the Bert & Ernie and Curious George ones were pretty neat.

 As soon as E saw the trains around the big tree and gingerbread houses, she was fixated on them. If we tried to move her she would just try her best to pull us back to the trains.

 Lots more houses displayed for us to see from the outside. Of course, the train was the favorite and she would chase it up and down the window!

Outside in Market Square checking out the lights.


There were some musicians playing in the square and so of course E had to get some dancing in. It was the highlight of my night. Not sure what is more fun to watch, her or the reaction of crowd that gathers to watch!





Elsa has this spot in the living room next to the tree where she likes to stand to sing and dance. She will come get us and sit us on the couch and give us a little show. Again, by the time I got it on camera, she was about done with performing all but we got some funny stuff on camera.





And lastly, just a few pictures of E loving her nativity set.

Hats- it's hereditary

 E has always loved to wear hats and other things on her head. 
For example:






 I now see where she gets it:


 Alex in 1986 wearing His Dammy's swimcap


If we had one, I am sure E would of loved wearing it!

Hokus Pokus, Abracadabra

All of the sudden this weekend, E turned into a little magician. Not sure where she got it but it was pretty funny. We didn't get the really funny acts on video but this one gives you a taste of her performances!

Forgotten pictures from our Huntingdon visit

Alex had a business trip last month and so I thought it was a perfect time to take E to see Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle Royce.



We sure are missing the sun already!

 seriously- how cute is she?



 This was literally about 2 minutes after we walked in the door!






 Obsessed and I mean OBSESSED with these cats...



Trying to find the kitty cats...I think all she said all weekend to everyone was "grandpa, where the kitty cats, Royce, where the kitty cats, mommy, where the kitty cats?" over and over and over!!!

Good times at Grandma & Grandpa's house!

Robot

I asked E this morning if she was making a tower. She said no, its a bobot (aka robot). She loves Robots these days.

She was getting frustrated because her mound of items for her robot would always fall over. So we decided to hit up the recycling and see if we could make her a robot to play with.



It was nice to be able to use up lots of the junk stuff  I had left over from making her quiet book.




This robot is going footless- we were too eager to play to try and find feet for it!

 She really wanted it to have a necklace...





 Check up for the robot

Not too sure how long this robot will last....I have a feeling it's head will come off at any moment! 
Maybe Alex and his mad engineering skills can fix it up for us!
