35 weeks / 8 months!

To celebrate Rose's 8-month-iversary yesterday, we took her to the "Dayton's display" in downtown Minneapolis. She was a little feverish and tired, and the look on her face seemed to be saying "What is this crazy place you took me to?!?" I think she had more fun watching the cars from the skyways before and after the exhibit. :) But just like our Santa photo, a trip to Dayton's is a Minneapolitan's winter rite of passage and we couldn't miss it.

Today we took her "official" weekly portraits. Ever since we did a practice Christmas present earlier in the week, Rose has been super excited to open gifts - even those that aren't for her :)

And she's starting to get really frustrated that she can't figure out how to crawl! Poor girl. I'm sure she'll get it soon! :)

Merry Christmas, everyone!
