Christmas 2010 has now come and gone. It was such a special Christmas for so many reasons. Our Phoebe was with us this year and it was so nice having her there to celebrate with us. Zoe mostly understands who Santa is and how he brings special presents to the nice girls and boys.
We went to our Ward Christmas party and Zoe was really excited to see Santa and tell him that she wanted paint for Christmas. We had explained that she didn't want to be on the naughty list so she had to be a nice girl. When it was time to put her coat on and leave the party she starting fussing and being naughty, saying she didn't want to leave. I told her that she either had to put her coat on or go tell Santa that she was being naughty and to put her on the naughty list. The little rascal turned away from me and started walking toward Santa to tell him to put her on the naughty list. I finally convinced her to be nice and put her coat on. Silly girl!
Christmas Eve we packed up all of our gifts and took everything to Grandma Pam and Grandpa Larry's house to spend the night. We had a tasty Chinese food supper and came home to open our Christmas jammies. Zoe got Dora the Explorer jammies and she was thrilled!! I got Cory a Nightshirt and it was so much fun!!! It was so goofy but so awesome! We had an eventful night because we tried to put Zoe, Pammy, and Cora all in the same room. Zoe and Cora just wanted to play and be silly so finally Heather took Cora into their room. Zoe woke up about 1 am and wasn't feeling very good. So Cory stayed up with her and took care of her all night. He said his nightshirt was like an awesome snuggie..he just had to pull his legs up into it and he was warm and cozy on the couch all night.
Christmas morning we were all awakened by Pammy yelling "A PILLOW PET!!! I got a PILLOW PET!!" I was surprised that Heather and Ryan went down before waking me up. So I got up out of bed to check and it turns out that Pammy had gotten scared during the night and wandered down to Grandma and Grandpas room. Grandma tried to entertain her by watching tv in the front room, but Zoe and Cory were snoozing there after a tough night. So she took Pammy back to her room and read stories. But Pammy eventually wandered into the living room and saw all the Santa glory. It was a fun way to wake up.
Phoebe is wondering why she isn't snoozing or nursing. Christmas is so confusing when you are so little.
Zoe loved her Christmas!! She got everything a little almost 3 year old dreams of! The very best gift this year would have to be her princess dress-ups. She is a dress-up lover and now has her very own dresses to love and cherish. It was an amazing Christmas and we have been so very blessed in every aspect of our lives.
This year we had 3 Dogs with us to celebrate Christmas! Heather's family got Ginger the cute little Beagle from Santa.
Loving on my ladies!
