I know I haven't been doing a very good job at this and considering Heidi has made more posts then me really seals the deal. I have been addicted to my myspace page - see Christmas photos there.
Lauren had a wonderful Christmas and helped everyone else open their gifts. Which was fine until it came to her 3yr old cousins who wanted to open their own presents. We celebrated Christmas at Chad's parents Saturday where Lauren got a new bike and digital camera from Mimi and Papa along with lots of other goodies. The digital camera was a hit until Lauren snapped a few shots of Daddy in the shower. Needless to say the camera is not allowed in the bathroom any longer. Maybe Daddy should learn to lock the door? We also have lots of close up pictures of Charile, I don't think he likes the camera either.
Sunday we had Christmas with my Dad's family. Lauren had a great time running around with Kennedy and playing with the Polar Express train that runs under their tree. They love to make the whistle sound and run it backwards around the track as fast as it will go. Lauren received several new "rooms" for the Dora House she got for her birthday along with Dora Horses and the Dora truck and horse trailer. Lauren loves to have Papa Mike read her stories because he always edits the words and makes them funnier. She thinks he is something else.
We shared Christmas eve between mine (my mom's side) and Chad's Grandparents house.
My mom, Lauren and I all got Ugg boots from Grandma, are feet won't get cold this year. Lauren also got a lot of horse riding gear - kiddo stir ups, a riding helmet as well as hot pink cowgirl boots. She is ready for spring to come so she can start riding Sweetie. Grandpa and Grandma are also sending Lauren on vacation - a 2 day stop at Disney then they cruise to the Bahamas. (wish I got a vacation for Christmas)
You ask, what more could a kid want? We haven't even made it to what Santa Clause brought...
Santa brought Lauren a big yellow dump truck as well as a dance bag full of leotards, ballet shoes and tights. Mommy and Daddy enrolled her in dance classes for Christmas and bought her some more use full things like p.j.'s, clothes and big kid silverware. One of her most favorite gifts came in her stocking from Santa - a checkbook and red gingham cover from PBK. She loves helping me write out bills so this way she can do too. She is very genourous when it comes to writing checks, more so then Mommy.
Now if I could just find the perfect spot to store all this mess...Maybe Lauren can ask for a house keeper next year :)
