LaRue Birthday Presents

Joel gave her his ball and telephone
and with his Christmas money
he bought her a bath toy.

Esther gave her the doll that Joel gave to Esther
when Esther turned 1.

Grandma and Grandpa gave her a pretty dress.
The phone was more interesting.

They also gave her a car seat -
which is also part of her Christmas.

I'm sure she'll be happy with paper and bows.

Aunt Cindy and uncle Tommy
gave her an electric toy turtle.

One of her favorite gifts.

You should have seen her reaction when all the little
kids reached over to play with it.

Major objections!


She was also given some money,
which we put into diapers.

And a toy train.

And a police car from Matthew.

And an outfit from Mamaw and Papaw,
but we had to exchange it for the next size up.
And ended up with a different outfit,
as we didn't find that one.
It was really cute - just too small.

LaRue is wearing 18 month clothes,
and I expect to have to start pulling 24 month sizes
by February.

She also just moved into size 5 shoes.
What a shock, as she was size 3 all summer.

But they were sandles and she was barefoot most of the time.
