Christmas Day has come and gone, but the memories will remain forever!

Our Christmas day began with a call from Lydia's Omi and Opa, calling all the way from Thailand! They told Lydia how much they love and miss her, and wished her a wonderful Christmas! Outside the world was still white, and the sun was shining brightly. A little while later Grammy and Poppy came over and we had a very nice Christmas meal together. We then decided to open presents! The first present Lydia opened was...



A princess castle tent from Grammy and Poppy! None of us were sure what she would think of it...but she absolutely loves it! She found the door and went inside in a matter of seconds, and proceeded to smile through the mesh window and giggle. A few minutes later we opened her second present (a book with puzzle pieces that fit into each page), and she went back into her tent to read it.

Then Liam, Kelly and Joshua arrived and we continued all of the present-opening fun. What fun Lydia will have with her new things!

Liam brought over one of his favorite new things.


Lydia liked it too! She played with it for a minute, and Liam looked a little concerned about that! He was sweet about it though.

But meanwhile Lydia was offered another gift...a baby doll from Kelly and Joshua! (She has a stroller too!)

Grammy read to us from a book called "Cat Heaven" - a book Kelly gave to her.

Liam and Lydia toppled over the tent while playing together!


We gave Liam a bean bag chair. Rather than sit in it, he thought it would be fun to steamroll Aunt Nicky! He took me out by surprise a couple of times!

Merry Christmas 2009!

Love her tent! That looks so cute. Are you having a hard time storing all this new stuff like I am???
