That night I helped Dada wrap presents. I get the feeling that I got in the way a little but I enjoyed helping! As soon as we finished wrapping everything, I wanted to unwrap everything. I like getting to tear up all of the paper!
Thursday was Christmas morning and I woke up to Mama, Dada, Nana, Papa, Mimi and Grandpa all at my house! It was so exciting because they told me that Santa came to see me! They got me all dressed in an outfit that Dada bought for me and I walked around the corner and saw it! It was so exciting!
Santa brought me a mailbox, farm, piggy bank, bath toys, knob puzzles, boots, shape bucket and Fridge Phonics!
It did not take long for me to get to work trying to figure everything out! Of course, everything is on video. Everyone enjoyed my reactions and I love dancing to all of the music. I sway my hips back and forth when I dance.
For breakfast, we had cheese grits, pancakes, bacon and eggs. I loved the pancakes! Then it was time for a little love time so I climbed up in between Papa and Grandpa where I thought that I might get some attention. They were happy to give me all that I needed.
My new favorite thing is to try on other's shoes so I thought that I would give Mimi's slippers a try. I think that they are just my size! I had a little trouble walking in them but really liked them. Gretchen tried to chase them though! After breakfast, Mimi and Grandpa left and Nana and Papa stayed until I took my nap. I was glad that they all came for Christmas morning and I hope we can do that every year. It makes it so much more fun.
After my nap it was time to go have our third Christmas with Mimi and Grandpa at their house. I had fun playing in the Radio Flyer wagon that they gave me. I gave Mr Mistletoe the boot and took over.
Everyone had fun helping me open presents. Mimi helped me open my new purse from Miss Amy. I was so prissy walking around with it! I got so many presents and I got to leave some of the at their house so that I can look forward to playing with them when I visit. Thank you Mimi and Grandpa!
Then it was dinner time! Even though I do not have that many teeth, I can certainly put away some food! My favorite food is actually broccoli and so I loved the broccoli casserole that Mimi made for Mama. We also had a rib roast, brown rice and mashed potatoes. It was yummy. I will only eat if I can feed myself now. I do not like to be helped anymore. I am very independent you know.
The day after Christmas was a day of adjustment! It was a hard transition after Christmas because of everything going on! I was a little high maintenance for Mama and Dada. Mama let me eat my snack in the den and I also got to play with my water bottle. That it one of my new favorite toys! Mama uses it to spray my hair in the morning to bring back my curls! I also tried on George's Camp McDowell shirt that he got for Christmas! I can't wait until I am big enough to go to Mama's favorite place on earth!
Saturday, I was back to normal. Mama and Dada got up early and we went shopping for George's room. While we were out, I also picked out my princess chair and they bought it for me. It is really my favorite gift! I do everything on it and it pulls out into a bed with a sleeping bag. I like to crawl in after I put on my Pajamas. That day, we purchased, Georges crib, bedding and fabric so that Mama could recover the headboard and chair in Seersucker. I liked helping pick out things for my brother. I am looking forward to him being here...I think!
I was given this bear by Miss Becky and Uncle Wayne for Christmas. I love to give him hugs and tackle him! Dada thinks that it is so funny when I do that. I let him share my new chair but that just means that he is special because there are not too many that I will allow to sit on it! That night, Miss Weldon came and stayed with us and she brought me new bath toys for Christmas. Now I do not have Janky bath toys! Thank you Miss Weldon!
Sunday after church, Mimi and Grandpa came over and gave me some new clothes and a warm coat. They hit some major sales at Mt Laural and I racked up! As you can see, I have the tag taped to my coat because when Mama took it off, I got upset so she had to tape it on. It matched perfectly with the dress that Miss Holly gave me which is underneath. They also got lots of cute clothes for George and me for next year. I should not run out of holiday clothes!This Christmas was a blast and I can't wait for next year. I know that I will be sharing the spotlight with my brother but I do not mind sharing a little time. I think that everyone will have enough love to go around! Thank you everyone for such a special holiday!
