Christmas morning was so fun this year. We travel back to Minnesota for Christmas every other year so we're still in the process of defining our family traditions for when we are home but it mostly consists of waking up and heading downstairs to see what Santa brought. I guess it's not too complicated.
Maddie is afraid of Santa. She's never wanted to sit on his lap and she even expressed sincere concern about him coming when putting her to bed the night before. She said she wanted to tell Santa to leave the presents outside the door. It didn't seem to bother her Christmas morning though when she ran downstairs to see her stocking full of goodies. Santa brought her a slinky!
And he brought her the Wow, Wow Wubbzy movie she'd been wanting so badly! How did he know? That's "cookedy"!
After checking out our stocking goodies, we sorted out the presents under the tree and got to the unwrapping. Of course, William couldn't get started until he finished his morning "baba". I know, I know... I've got to start weening him from his bottle...but he only has 2 a day. He's still my baby!
Maddie had a blast. Even the pets did some shopping this year. Check out the Barbie pretend makeup kit Jackson bought her. She loved it and she wasn't camara shy Christmas morning. She loved posing with all of her new presents in her new Princess jammies!
William totally got into the unwrapping this year too. He wanted to open up every new toy he got immediately and play with it. Maddie had to end up helping him finish opening his gifts. Ahhh... this is what Christmas is all about. What pure and utter joy.
