Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was a fairly low-key day for Talia.  A little bit of playing, a little watching Mickey, and going to the grocery store (which she surprisingly enjoys a lot).  We went to the 6:30 Christmas Eve service - normally this would be a good time for Talia - but she went "napless" yesterday.  So Talia was a bit giddy, tired, and overall hard to control.  Also, it didn't help that the service went from 6:00 (prelude Christmas songs) to 8:00.We asked her about 50 times to whisper and use her "church voice" when talking.  She has always been a talker and perhaps it's because we encourage her vocabulary....... she only whispered one out of every five times she spoke.  The climax of her silliness was when she chucked a green grape at Alysia and it deflected off of her leg, landing next to an older man.  There was one brief moment where she was completely quite and calm - when she was watching a man sing from the balcony... she's always enthralled with watching people sing or dance.

We didn't take a picture at church, but did snap her at home after church.  No worries, she didn't take her "dress-up" scarf with her to the service.
