2nd Christmas

Well, actually, this is her first Christmas since last year we took advantage of the fact that she wouldn't have a clue so we could take one more year "off" from THE most commercial Holiday. Still, she didn't quite understand the idea of Santa and opening presents...but now that the toys are revealed she's having quite a morning playing with all the new stuff. Good luck trying to get her to take a nap today, huh?

Crown (and then some!) compliments of Grandpa Don & Judy (Thank you!)...chocolate by Santa.

Pre chaos...

Cool easel from Aunt Sally & Uncle Sean...and a scooter from Santa!

More stuff from Santa

All the goods! And a stocking full of chocolate!

This was taken before we left for Aunt Darlene & Uncle Jerry's for Sunday pre-Christmas Brunch...I love the outfit! And I know I promised in a previous post that I'd post more pictures of the little-one-in-progress...but if you aren't used to looking at ultrasounds they can look a little creepy so I'll wait until we have a photo that requires a little less imagination.

Zoey the Astronomer

OK, so we aren't calling Mensa yet. And this isn't as amazing as that little 2 year old who can point out hundreds of countries (some I've never heard of) on a map but I think this is really cute...especially since she won't reliably count to ten unless Elmo tells her to and she doesn't know all her letters yet. Performance note: She stubs her toe on the desk in the middle of the recitation but eventually finishes once she regains her composure. LOL
