This is a repeat for those of you who check Ty's blog too, but Lizzy and Ty finally got to "play" together. I think that Lizzy finally met her match. There was a stare-down at one point that would have put some Wild West cowboys to shame. Ty won, and Lizzy was finally humbled.

Well...the Kwiatkowskis had a pretty lousy Christmas. Lizzy was exposed to chickenpox at her daycare, and because Daddy can't get it he has been living at his mom and dad's house for a week. Which means...no family Christmas for us. Lizzy did go to her Great Grandma's house for Christmas, but we have postponed all of her gift opening until Daddy can come.

Not many people can pull of this outfit, but we think Lizzy can do it.

Lizzy had a big week. On Monday she and Kim (our daycare provider) went the dollar store. Lizzy went in a normal girl, but she came out a princess:)

On Thursday, Lizzy had a Christmas cookie party. She was so excited the Bo, Sam, Ione, Cam, and Evan could all come to her party. We had a GREAT time!

Some friends of ours came over today to look at our house...they are thinking of buying it. So in the middle of last minute cleaning, Lizzy decided to pitch in. Truthfully, she does this everytime I clean. I think she has a tad bit of OCD like her mommy :)

Last night was the Christmas celebration downtown. Again this year Matt was a "wise man". I guess he is pretty smart because he seems to like me and Lizzy :)

Also, Lizzy got to meet Santa Claus which because this is Valpo was my high school student council sponsor's husband. I know that sounds like no one close to us, but it was again fun to walk around and feel at home. Lizzy like Santa for about 30 seconds. Then she seemed to realize that she was with someone she didn't know...then the tears which were not captured on film.

We had fun this weekend at Colin's (our nephew) birthday party. The fun began when we found Dianne locked in her own car. We decided to take a picture first before we let her out. Lizzy loved the video games and spending time with her cousins.

Happy 5th Birthday Colin!!!
