We had a great Christmas. Ally enjoyed opening presents. Just like all other babies her age, her favorite things were the box her present came in, the wrapping paper, and the bows. Now that the boxes, wrapping paper, and bows are all gone, she has discovered her presents! She has learned how to play by herself and keep herself entertained. I love that I don't have to sit next to her all day now. She has learned how to pull herself up to just about everything. We had to lower her crib yesterday because I went in to check on her during nap time and she was standing up and could have fallen over the side. Ally absolutely loves being able to move around and get into everything we tell her not to. She still LOVES to chew on cords, so that keeps me busy.
We went to St. Louis to see the Arch. Ally absolutely loved being up there. She saw a ferry go by and instantly started to jabber at the ferry. We had to walk over the interstate to get to the arch and Ally was very fascinated by the cars and semis that were passing below us. We went swimming at the hotel and she had so much fun. On our drive home we had Kansas City fans driving to Indy for the Colts game. Some of them were really ready for the game, their cars included.
