Babyland General

At the beginning of this month we took a weekend getaway to Helen, GA where we stayed in Preston's parents time share. On the way we stopped at Babyland General in Cleveland, GA. They have moved locations and it is in a beautiful white colonial house set in the mountains. Preston and I both said "really" as we drove up to this beautiful location. It was a perfect place to visit while it was cold outside and a great plus was that the admission is free! As soon as we walked in we were surprised to see Santa. The twins pointed while yelling "Ho Ho" which is what we call our decorative Santa. We hadn't planned on doing pictures as we didn't even know we would get to see a Santa but since we had just come from church the twins were dressed for the occasion. I am so happy that I decided to get the picture because little did I know this would be our only picture with Santa as Gracie and Bailey now have developed a slight fear for our chubby, white haired friend. Gracie loves baby dolls and she has just recently really gotten into playing mommy with her dolls. She loves to feed them, change them and do just about anything to mimic me as a mommy. I was especially excited to see her reaction to the dolls. She ran right in and immediately was ready to play.
Gracie's first reaction and touch to the cabbage patch dolls.
We tried to explain that this doll might be a little too big for her!

She quickly found this doll carriage which she talked her Daddy into buying.

The twins are obsessed with school buses as we wave to 3 that pass our house each day and so this bus was a big hit. They really wanted to hop on for a ride.

Sweet Bailey finally found a puppy dog among all the babies.
Gracie is hanging out with her new friends and is not ready to leave.
Bailey decided to try out the stroller as his sister seemed to be having fun.

After Babyland General we enjoyed cuddling by the fire in the cabin and having a fun filled family weekend in the mountains. It has been a busy month as I haven't posted in a little while but more updates are coming soon!
