It's Beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

But first, it looks like pink pony pajamas :) I've been DYING to get these on her! First she was too small and then we couldn't fit them over her cast. They fit perfect now!


This weekend we officially got into the holiday spirit. First we went down to the Farmer's Market to get our tree.
Then Violet said she'd help put the lights up.

But she had to test them out first to make sure they tasted right. She also tried on her Santa Hat (notice the little left ear stuck out. Aw!)
But that only lasted a minute or two.
And (drum roll please) she also wanted to show off her re-found skill. She can officially sit up unassisted again! Only 5 days post-cast! Go Violet!
We are so incredibly happy to be cast-free. It's amazing how much you just get into the swing of things with the cast, and when it's off you think "We did THAT?" Everything is so much easier... I actually went shopping with Violet the other day and *gasp* could get whatever I wanted, not just what would fit into the stroller basket! Plus she is so much more fun to snuggle with, bathe, dress (the PANTS! I love the PANTS!), feed, nurse, etc. She is very much enjoying her cast-free life and is really scooting around, although she still hasn't figured out how to crawl. We're loving it!
