After a fun filled Xmas in GA, we came back home on Wednesday, with all the gifts that were too large to take down to Columbus - and there were A LOT! We pretended that it was Xmas Even on Wed and when Maya woke up (after 12 hrs of sleep!!!) on Thu, we went down for Fake Xmas - complete with homemade waffles and presents!
 |
| 99% of these gifts were for Maya... |
All in all, it took about 3 hrs for Maya to open all her numerous gifts, with all her "wow"s and playing with her gifts as she opened them... she got some amazing stuff too - more books, more puzzles, a new kitchen set (with shopping cart), a cool new wagon, and lots of new animals. We're also trying to make sure she's getting ready for Eggy #2, so introducing lots of babies and dogs - Maya is SO nurturing - she always is asking for her "baby" or "doggies" and carries them around everywhere.
 |
| Opening gifts is fun!!! |
 |
| More books & puzzles! This is a doggie! |
 |
| More animals, a castle, and lego-style blocks (daddy is too cheap for real Legos (r)) |
 |
| I have my own kitchen now! No more waiting for the parents to cook me fruit! |
 |
| Hmmm... plastic stoveware - not so sure how this is going to work... |
 |
| I'm preparing for a career hawking kitchenware on QVC! "It's no stick!" |
 |
| Or a career as the next Julia Child - don't I look cute in my apron from grand-umma? |
 |
| A talking & walking doggie! Wow!!! |
 |
| I'll just add it to my collection of dogs... |
 |
| I love babies! I can't wait for my real little bro to arrive! I'm practicing with these for now - changing & putting him to bed in my awesome baby furniture from Grandma & Grandpa! |
 |
| I'm gonna love my little brother so much - and kiss him all over! Mmmmm-wah! |
 |
| Grandma & Grandpa also got me this sweet new ride that conveniently can carry me & my little bro! |
 |
| and the parents got this sweet new ride for me & the li'l guy... we'll be so styling in Wellesley. |
We've had an amazing 10 days or so with family, but we've really enjoyed being with Maya - she's growing up and changing so much every day and it's such a blast to watch her grow into a big girl - she even peed on her potty for the first time -
check out the video on YouTube!
We also are getting our first real snowstorm in 12 months (crazy for Boston)... so
we took the opportunity to take Maya sledding (just on our porch)...
Only a few more days before heading back to work - hope you all have a wonderful New Years!
