A few Christmas memories

We always begin Christmas morning at my parents house with a birthday cake my mom has prepared for Jesus.

Here the kids are singing Happy Birthday

Caitlyn had asked Nana for a Baby that goes to the potty. She was very excited to open it and play with it. That doll ate and ate and drank and drank and pottied and pottied;)
Later that night when we were at home, I was busy taking the tree down and I went in the laundry room to find Caitlyn feeding the baby dog treats!:0( ... So we had to work hard to get those out of her tummy! She was so in love with this doll she woke up at 2AM talking about her for an hour.

Christmas Eve I was busy baking and I was on the phone with my mom and I turned around to find someone bathing in my sink;) This kept her occupied around an hour.

I love that you all sang Happy Birthday to Jesus! That is what it's all about. You captured such precious photos of your treasures. I love the look on their faces when they saw their goodies. Caitly must really love her baby to be talking about her at 2 a.m. Oy! : )

You did a wonderful job of capturing the memories, as always!

You know how you have those childhood gifts you remember wanting soooo badly? Well, mine was a Baby Alive. I was so excited when I finally got one. I also wanted to Lite Bright, but I never got one of those.... sigh... LOL!!
