I always remember being young and waking up at the crack of dawn to see if he’d been, checking my stocking to see if it was full of presents 🙂 You’re a bit young for that so we’re able to have a more relaxing morning with the presents underneath the tree. This year will probably be the last when we’re able to wait until after Christmas lunch to open them. We spent the morning preparing the food, chatting and playing in front of the TV, what more could we ask for?
I’m not sure how long I’ve had this toy but it’s been living on top of our closet for the last few years. Grandma & Granddad think your Auntie Sarah bought it me when I was young, so we’re looking at 20 years+. With some new batteries it works as good as new. We were expecting more of a reaction however you were very hesitant at first, maybe we caught you in the wrong mood. It’ll stay downstairs to keep you entertained just as it did when I was ‘young’… I think I was like 18 when I got it 😀 I’ve always been a big kid at heart.
Mummy left the toy cupboard open and the little doggy got in 😀 It also seems like the doggy wanted to lick and slobber all over anyone who dared to get near to her toys!
After your laughing fit when Mummy was juggling eggs you’ve now learnt and started perfecting your skills. I’m sorry about the pig towards the end, you’re getting used to it though, even playing with it sometimes. It now lives by TV so any time you’re feeling brave… go give it a squeeze! 😀
This morning we had a closely fought game of Hide ‘n’ Seek in the living room. You obviously have a natural advantage being the size you are 😀 You went to your favorite hiding place, underneath one of the bar stools, I think it’s your second home now 🙂 Mummy has now placed a mat there due to the amount of time you spend on the floor, I’m personally thinking of charging you rent 😀 Lol She can’t wait to buy you a Princess Castle… I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact you might spend hours in there playing.. ?!? As long as you invite us in for a nice cup of ‘tea’ I’m happy!
He arrived last week but tonight is when you officially get your presents. Come to think of it I believe you’re supposed to get a present each night. This isn’t too far off the truth as you got your new princess car and shopping cart over the last few days. We have a picture below of you and all your gifts, you did very well and we still have Christmas to come!
You love your little dolly the best, it says ‘Mama’ & ‘Papa’, cries and laughs when you squeeze its stomach. You were hugging her, kissing her on the head when we said ‘Kiss Kiss’ to you 🙂 You dropped her a few times on her head but we’ll ignore that 😀 She even has a little hat for you to keep taking off… along with your socks. The Lego wasn’t the biggest hit however I managed to make a few things before you destroyed them, a Giraffe and large tower.
The living room was already a little messy but after starting the Christmas tree Mummy was nearly crying 🙂 You helped a little, however you weren’t as fascinated by the tree as we expected. You loved Mummy’s dog that sings and flaps its ears, so much so that she won’t be taking it to work this year, it’ll stay home to entertain you 🙂
You helped me put the final touch on the tree with the silver spire! There’ll be a lot more pictures to come as our house slowly transforms into ‘Santa’s Grotto’. At this time of year I’m sure the electricity companies are rubbing their hands together… 🙂
