Merry Christmas!



Kate had a great time on Christmas Eve and Christmas. We had my whole family over for Christmas Eve and went to Jamisen's aunts on Christmas Day. Kate loved all her presents. She got marching band instruments from my Aunt Gail and she recruited everyone to march with her. She also got my little pony stuff from my mom which she loves. My grandma got her a Koala necklace which is her first jewelry. My aunt Denise got her a doll to take in her bath and a play doh Cookie Monster set which she's been begging to open. We'll probably break out the play doh today since we're staying home. My dad got her tinker toys which for some reason she thinks is to build a robot. Jamisen's aunt got her a princess tent and car track set. She has so much to play with so I can't wait until the basement is finished so we can get some of these toys organized. It was great to spend time with all the family. I'm tired and looking forward to some rest, just a few more weeks until the baby is here. Now that the holiday craziness is over I'll be trying to get everything ready.

Merry Christmas!

Christmas is so close!

Kate is getting really excited for Christmas. She likes everything about it: decorations, presents, cookies, what's not like? She got a gift this week in the mail from Jamisen's Aunt Linda, Uncle Mike, and their kids. She was very excited to open it as you can see in the video. We've been reading her new books over and over.

Getting ready for Christmas!

Kate has been really excited that Christmas is getting closer. She pretty much asks everyday is it's Christmas. She's been having fun watching all the Christmas shows. My mom came over last weekend to make cookies. Kate had a really good time decorating cookies, especially adding the sprinkles.
