As in Merry Christmas. Okay, okay, today's date is February 22 so i'm going back in time a bit, but it's better to have posted late than not posted at all...right?!
As expected, we had a wonderful Christmas! I was so excited for it this year, because I felt like you would kind of "get it" and enjoy the traditions we were starting to set as a family. I wasn't too surprised that i was the first one up on Christmas morning, that was always the case when i was a little girl at Gigi and Papaws house...some things never change. I woke up, turned on some dim lights in the living room, and turned on the Christmas music at a low volume. I grabbed a cup of coffee, then sat in the chair facing your room so i could make sure to see your face when you came out of your door! I didn't realize i'd be sitting there for 45 minutes, but i didn't mind. this gave time for your daddy to get up too. We had spent the night before putting together your gift that Santa had left you...a table and chairs that were just your size...perfect for all the coloring and "sticker-booking" you love to do.
When you finally made your way out of bed, you went straight to the table!
In addition to the table you got new coloring books, crayons, markers (washable...thank goodness) and clothes!
Once we were done with our own little family Christmas we made our way to Nana's where the fun continued! We had a yummy lunch and you were very excited to get a singing Big Bird and talking Super Grover! We spent the whole day just hanging out and playing! And it didn't end there...
The next day, we hopped a plane to Oklahoma for a little Christmas time with the rest of our awesome family! Not only did we spend some quality time with Gigi, Pepaw, Aunt Andi, Uncle Alan, Ben and Sydney...but it was also your first time seeing and playing in....SNOW!!
And of course, we had our annual Gigi/Jade Birthday party while in Oklahoma! We ate some super yummy cake, and once again, celebrated with some great gifts! you got some new blocks, and a few new movies (including Finding Nemo, which quickly became a favorite)!
