We had a great Christmas and were able to travel to both Arkansas and Texas. We were in Arkansas on Christmas day and then Caroline and I went down to Texas through New Year's Eve. Caroline opened presents on four different occasions and definitely got a good haul (list is below, but it's mainly so I'll remember and can put it in her baby book when I finally get around to updating it):
- Mom and Dad: play kitchen, Mr. Potato Head, play dishes for her kitchen, books
- Neighbors Erika, Tom and Sadie: doggie lunch sack
- Meme and PaPa: Lego train, Giggle baby doll, puzzle, bath toys, ornament and stocking
- Tio Brad: play golf club set
- Uncle Richard and Aunt Anita: Gingerbread Man stuffed doll
- Aunt Lisa and Uncle Bob: hat and mittens
- Cousins Mikey, Annie, Miceala and Samantha: animal sounds book
- Nana and Pop: Little People barn, pond and tractor, Brio magnet train, blocks, doll accessories, three outfits, stocking stuffers including stickers, play-dough, tights and bubbles
- Tia Jo: play food for her kitchen
- Uncle Charlie and Aunt Judy: baby doll
- Aunt Nancy: dress
- Uncle Steve and Aunt Gwen: coloring books and CD/DVD
Now, we just have to find a place to put everything in our tiny house. Here are lots of pics of opening presents, Christmas Eve and Christmas day, which are mainly for the grandparents (especially since I'm not sure who else even reads this thing).
Opening presents in DC from Mom and Dad - she wanted to play with every toy so it took quite a while to get through them all:
Inspecting the tree in Fort Smith on Christmas Eve - she loved the ornaments that were small little books. She wore the same outfit as last year - it was a little short and short sleeves rather than long sleeves, but it worked. We went to Mass, but didn't make it through the whole thing due to someone's poor behavior (and no, it wasn't Spanky):
