Oh well,.....Merry Christmas!

Although Andi has been a good girl all year long, she was not a fan of Santa. In fact, she was terrified of him!

Andi is eight months (almost nine months) old and has been going through this phase of being scared of unfamiliar things. When we were out shopping a couple of weeks ago, I saw a huge stuffed animal dog, pushed the shopping cart close to it so Andi could pet it, and she began to shiver, look away and cry. On top of her dresser at home she has a large stuffed dog. She looked up at it and then had a death grip on my arm. When I lifted her up to get a better look, she cried. That stuffed animal is now in the closet (out of sight) until she overcomes her fear of furry creatures. Don't worry, she does, however, still love Pearl!
