Yummy suckers...how did Santa know?? |
Our day started with JuJu and Mommy getting up before Emily, having some coffee, and getting the cameras all ready for the little darling to awake! Emily finally woke up around 7 a.m. and wanted to know right away if Santa came??? She headed right for the table and saw that the big guy had eaten the cookies and drank the milk, yum! Next came stocking fun!!! She loved everything Santa put in her stocking from the Pez, pencils with her name, tiny Beast, to the recorder...yes, you read that right, a recorder, or as Emily says, "A horn." She has been playing it a lot today, and yes it is loud; but after a while one can just kind of tune it out, AND she is having SO MUCH FUN!!
Next came the gifts that Santa left...THE CAT WITH BOTTLE!!!!! She has been saying she wanted Santa to bring this since the beginning of November! Her face was priceless when she opened it! Next was Belle with music and moving roses on her dress. Then came a purse, lipstick, money, key fob, and more all PRINCESS! The last gift from Santa was her Beast doll! My girl LOVES the Beast!
When the activities moved out into the family room, she was somewhat overwhelmed. She LOVED everything, but got tired of opening and wanted help, which was fine! She had fun helping mommy and JuJu open as well. She LOVED her new puppy that she named Happy, that has a cold and is sick. He sneezes, blows his nose, drinks from a bottle, and has a stethoscope, thermometer, and shot to take care of him. He also has a special tissue that when she wipes his red sick nose, he will blow his nose! TOO CUTE!!
Mommy loved the sign that says LOVE with a heart that Emily picked out herself with JuJu! It will be hung right away!
After some play time with all the new toys, it was on to Nana's house to see more family! She had a good time with her loving Uncle Mike, Nana, Aunt Carol, and Christi and Jessica. Her new school toy is super fun, as is Princess Chutes and Ladders. Emily also got her first gift card, which she doesn't really understand, but will be allowed to spend however she chooses.
A great time was had by all, and then it was time to head home for a nice lunch, nap, and then onto dinner with Grandpa, Grandma, and everyone from Christmas Eve. We dined at the Red Lion at the Quay and had a marvelous time.
We ended the day by chillin' on the couch watching Winnie the Pooh before bed! Yes, Emily is sleeping in her new "sleep mask" that goes with her new PJ'S!! Too cute! She knows that mommy is going to sneak in when she is asleep and put the sleep mask on her side table! All in all it was a very Merry Christmas seen through the eyes of my darling girl!
Love to you all, and a very Merry Christmas!
