This morning, I had to wake Bailey up. I had to wake her up, because she was up half the night...my guess was from excitement, but I'm not sure if she really new that...instead she just called me into her room every hour to hour and a half. It was a "lovely" night :) So, come 9am, I had to go in and wake her up and let her know that it was Jesus' birthday and Santa had come...to which she replied, "Happy Birthday Jesus" and "I missed Santa while I was napping" :) I had to explain to her that Santa only comes at night, while we are sleeping. She was still a little bummed, but quickly moved past that when she realized that he might have brought the gift she asked him for.
This was the first Christmas (since Bailey's birth) that my parents weren't here with us; it was bitter sweet. So much fun to watch Boo while she opened gifts and got excited about each and every one, and then looked forward to the next :) But we missed Mom and Dad. Being away from family is tough, especially on these special days. Praise God for phones, Skype and planes!!
Oh...special bonus today, at around 2pm it started to snow! A white Christmas in Georgia! Bailey looked outside and said, "it's Christmas!" :)
MERRY CHRISTMAS! We love you all...
First gift of the morning...Santa's gift!
This was so funny...she was opening Santa's gift and realized
it was the toy she wanted; she got up and started laughing and
jumping around with excitement :) It was really cute...
Santa's present... Little Einsteins!
Enjoying her book from Uncle Jeff and Aunt Rachel
Daddy enjoyed this gift from Jeff and Rachel...okay, so
it was a Princess mini piano for Bailey but, Tom really
liked it (she did too but, Daddy snagged it first :)
Tinker bell "beauty" items (pretend make-up, curling iron,
hair dryer, etc..).
Bailey got a little drill set, which she loved! I like this picture,
because she's using her drill set, while wearing her Belle
Princess bracelet :)
Bailey quickly figured out the quickest way to fill
in the holes...she fills up a line with a bunch of screws
and then uses her drill to put them in. That's Popo's girl!
Studying a toy (cute little doll) from great G&G Couey
