Christmas 2008

She's 2 1/2 now and was really into Christmas this year. While she wasn't scared of Santa, she still wasn't quite sure about him. I'm figuring that by next Christmas, Santa will be her BFF and she'll fill his ear with a litany of requests.

Here's just a sample of photos from her Christmas at our house and at home.

Unwrapping carefully

What a silly ball

On Grammy's lap wearing her new play jewelry and a red sticker on her forehead

With Uncle Adam

Playing Papa's piano -- she was crazy about Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star

On Santa's lap

Decorating a cookie in the elves kitchen

Look what Santa brought!

Shoes!

And gloves!

And boots!

I really, really like this

A girl has to keep her lips moisturized, doesn't she?

I like sparkly things

Rah, rah, rah! Three cheers for Santa Claus!

Is there a doctor in the house?
