Micah is always gratifying to watch. He exclaims so enthusiastically about everything and gives huge hugs.
Seriously...I already had a couple of adorable dresses that would be great Christmas dresses for this little girl. And then I saw this one at the Bargain box and could not stop myself. Two dollars. Yet it was unnecessary. I know this. But SO CUTE...

Merry Christmas
Kids coming down to see if Santa remembered us...I know Noah was awake, but I pretty much woke everyone else up including Taryn. Normally I would NEVER wake my baby early, but I was thinking that with church at 11:00, maybe I could wake her early and put her down right at 9 and she would get a decent nap before church....It didn't work perfectly, but decently...anyway...
They had to eat their Captain Crunch (who started that tradition anyway--SO not good for you), and then we headed in to find the stockings and Santa gifts.


A year ago we went to a Childrens museum that had this fun game called "Skittles". We took lots of pictures and Trav built one during that 2 weeks of leave. I love that he is so talented. And this game is so much fun. For sure we surprised them on this one.
Taryn had a blast with everyone's paper. I did not buy her even one present. I knew we had more than enough baby toys already and that she would be more interested in the paper and boxes. But I admit that as I set out stocking and hers just had a clementine and a few blueberries, I started to feel guilty. But in the end it was SO good, because she got spoiled from other people instead. Why is opening your baby's presents just like opening your own?

I love new bows and clothes for her!

can't believe that trav made that game! amazing. i loved having christmas on a sunday too - it seemed very fitting to go to church. we didn't get victor any presents either - he just got one from grandparents and that was that. well, except for his christmas eve book and jammies. he seemed ok with it.
i love that lite brite (is that what they're called?) we had one growing up and i loved it! can you still get those?
