Some Christmas Morning Pics




The bottom pic is Lily in her new Santa jammies from Aunt Wendy, she's climbed up on the buffet to look at the Christmas decorations, including a tiny train that goes around a little track.
In the top pic you see Lily wearing a new pink sweater from Auntie Kath, and playing with a fun toy from Dave and family. She figured out how to make it work right away. You press down on the ladybug.
We had a really nice time with Lily on Christmas Day. It was just the three of us, and we took it slow, letting her open a gift and then if she wanted to play with it for a while, we did that. No rushing. Then it was time to feed her again, so we took a break. Then when it was naptime, John put together the doll stroller Aunt Kath sent, and we threw a blanket over it so it would be easy for her to "unwrap" when she woke up. I think she had a very good time, which makes us happy. It's funny how Christmas changes when you have a kid, you focus on them so much that any presents you get for yourself seem like a bonus. Just seeing your kiddo happy is a big present in itself.
