Christmas Day

Christmas morning in our house was a slow, peaceful start! I got up around 6:30 in the morning. Aly didn't get up until 7:30. When she came down she was so excited! I told her we couldn't start until Daddy and KK woke up. I told her she could go wake them up if she wanted to. She chose not to and decided to have breakfast instead. Around 8:30 I told Aly that she could go wake up KK if she wanted to. This time she decided she would.
KK came down the stairs all sleepy and tired. She was quite surprised at what she saw. Just the night before we were telling her Santa would be coming and she didn't believe us. She said, "No, not for 9 more days!" Daddy decided he wanted to get coffee first and start a fire. So the girls patiently waited for the next twenty minutes or so while Daddy got his coffee and Mommy started a fire.
The girls got to open their stockings first. They had a great time. KK got super excited over all of the floam in her stocking. Here is the video:


After opening their stockings they got to open their present from Santa. Each year Santa has special paper and a special bow just for his presents. The girls love it! Their favorite part is the bow that none of the other presents have!

Here is the video of them opening Santa's gift!



After they finished opening Santa's gift we let them play with it for awhile before we opened anymore gifts. The girls got used to opening a gift and playing with it so it was a nice and slow process. KK was so fun to watch open presents, she kept saying, "just what I always wanted!"
KK loved her playdoh ice cream maker. Aly loved her new doll. She even got matching jammies for her and her doll!
The baby in mommies tummy got presents too! Only because the girls insisted on buying the baby a toy for Christmas. I told them that the baby wouldn't be here yet but they still wanted to buy a toy. KK also asked Santa on two different occasions to bring the baby a rattle for Christmas. She didn't even ask him to bring her anything! So Santa brought the baby a rattle for Christmas. The girls opened the babies presents and put them in the closet.
They had a great day opening gifts and playing with all of their new things! It was so much fun to watch them!
