My favorite Christmas present

is so comfy, I fell asleep in it.

Merry Christmas!

So, it's a few days late but we have had such a busy week!!! Grandma Sue, Aunt Heather, Emilia, Ellie, Jackson and Chase all came into town on Christmas night to visit us!! We haven't seen them in months so it was great to see them all. I have changed so much since the last visit, they hardly recognized me.

Sissy and I had a great Christmas, Santa was very good to us this year. The night before, we left Santa some milk and cookies. We also left some carrots for the reindeer (since they can't have chocolate) Outside under the door mat we left a key for Santa as well. When we woke up in the morning, we saw that he had left the key on the table for us, and ate some of the food!!!

We decided to sleep in for Mommy and Daddy - we didn't get up until about 7:45am. Sissy and I both woke up about the same time. Mommy, Daddy, and sissy came into my room to wish me a Merry Christmas and then we all went downstairs. Under our pretty tree was a comfy purple chair for me (probably my favorite gift), a play kitchen (which makes a pretty close second place), a big doll house from Grandma Sharon for me and sissy, and tons of presents!!












Next year apparently I will have a baby brother or baby sister when it's Christmas time. That should be interesting :)

No thank you, Santa

Over the weekend I went with my cousins over to their friends house. Guess who showed up? Santa!! I think you can tell by the picture that I'm not a fan - yet.

That's me, trying to escape.

Again. Maybe next year.

Maybe next year

This morning Mommy and Daddy took sissy and I to Mommy's work for "Breakfast with Santa". I was excited to tell him what I wanted for Christmas. I came close...

Maybe next year I will be able to tell him what I want.

Practicing for Christmas

When we were up at Grandma Sharon's last week for Thanksgiving she wrapped up some toys around the house and had me practice opening them for Christmas! One of the gifts was a laughing Elmo. We left it up there and Grandma sent it with some other things Mommy left and wrapped it up again for me! It was like I never even opened it the first time!

The one thing I said I'd never do

buy my child cartoon character shoes. She LOVES Elmo though and they are New Balance so they are in style... so I let it slide this time.
