A belated Merry Christmas from our family to yours!
We spent the weekend before Christmas traveling to Wisconsin to celebrate with my family (and came home with a carload of gifts... wow!), so we had Christmas Eve and Christmas Day at home. It was absolutely relaxing, restful and wonderful. I tried to use the timer on my camera to snap a couple of family photos when we got back from church on Christmas Eve.
Our girls sleep in pretty well, so we got some much needed extra sleep on Christmas morning. (Santa's elves were up really late putting the finishing touches on a big Christmas present.) When the girls did wake up, they opened their stockings right away. We convinced them to have breakfast after that, before opening anything else.
We try not to go too crazy on Christmas, but Santa did leave a few gifts for each girl. Little J has been so funny opening gifts for her birthday and now Christmas. She has to throw away each piece of wrapping paper that comes off before moving on to the next piece. It's very cute.
One of Miss A's gifts was a real stethoscope. Doc McStuffins is her favorite show right now, and she broke the stethoscope that came with her doctor kit. This one is pink (her favorite) and it really works, which she thinks is super fun. Everyone has had their heart checked many times in the past few days.
The girls got a big, joint gift of a dollhouse. I really like the one they got because each room is a separate piece. There are a ton of different ways to arrange one big house (trust me, they've been arranging like crazy... maybe with some help from Mommy), or my favorite part, you can build two separate houses. The dolls that came with the dollhouse were a little weird, so many princesses and Dora's family have moved in too.
Overall it was a fabulous Christmas! We have two very happy (very spoiled) little girls!
