Christmas Review

Can I start off by saying that I can not believe that Christmas has already come and gone! Morgan keeps on saying 0 more days till Santa....more like 364 baby. It really flew by this year, but we had so much fun and Morgan made it a blast. It was really fun to see it through her eyes this year and she has loved every single thing about it. She loves Christmas lights, Santa, Frosty, and her two favorites The Grinch and Christmas Carols! This girl loves her some Jingle Bells.... and basically any other Christmas song. She has been belting them out for about a month now, I just don't know how to tell her that it is time to move on. She is singing Jingle Bell Rock or Happy Birthday to Jesus or her very favorite Santa Clause is coming to town pretty much 24/7.
She was so cute last Sunday before church with her Christmas dress on that I had to take some pictures and ended up wishing that I had had these for the 'ole Christmas cards.

And I just love this one, she looks like such a little doll.

Not going to overload ya on all the unwrapping of the present photos, but I just love her expression in this one. It is a big girl necklace with a cross on it like Mommy's and boy did she love it.

This next one is Christmas morning in her Christmas PJ's with her new Bitty Baby. This girl loves her babies!

Me and the family on Christmas morning. We broke tradition a little this year and did presents and breakfast at my house on Christmas morning. Which allowed me to stay in my nice comfy sweatshirt and workout pants with no make-up! Merry Christmas to me!

After a long morning of presents and fun this is my tuckered out Snow White and her bestest, bestest buddy in the whole world Molly Polly watching the Disney World Christmas Parade.

I will leave you with a pic of my most favorite thing that Morgan got, her American Girl Bitty Baby. Beth convinced me and Angela that these were simply MUST HAVES....and I have to agree. I am hooked. I love the whole logic behind American Girl and the girls just love the store. Ane the babies are just too stinkin' cute, as Morgan would say.

I hope that all of you girls had a the most Blessed Christmas ever!!!

You take such awesome pictures! I love the moment you captured when she opened her big girl necklace. I admit that need to get with the program...I have no idea what American Girls is/are.

I'm with Andrea, not a clue as to the American Girls are all about. Those are fantastic pictures. I'm glad you and Morgan had a great Christmas. You both deserve it so much!

AAAAGGGHHHH!!! Love the doll!!! Alex is in her bed as we speak all cuddled up to hers. I am sure that is a fluke, but who cares it is a start. I had to take her to the doc today. Both ears are infected. She had to get a shot because one of them was so bad. Now I want to buy an outfit for Alex's. I also love the photos of Mrogan by the tree. Call me soon!

Adorable pictures once again! I'm so glad you had fun! Morgan is precious and she looks like she had a blast!

The Bitty Baby's outfit is so cute! Allie's BB was Michael and my gift to her the day Wyatt was born. She loves her! It was my favorite thing we've given her too. I have to admit... I do hide her every time Allie has a friend over. She had a little girl over to play once and she colored with a ball point pen all over one of her doll's faces. I would have had a conniption fit if it had been her BB!!!!!

That first picture is stunning Mel, I LOVE it! Looks like Morgan had a great holiday, I love it when they are so excited too. She's beautiful!

Chris said...

I agree with Kim those pics are Stunning! She looks like one HAPPY GIRL all the way around!! Ok, so where do you buy the Bitty Babies? I may have to get Lindsay one of those come July when the baby is born!!

Chris, go to the new American Girl Bistro & Boutique store at Northpoint Mall. You can pick out the color of skin, eyes, and hair. Then you can buy accessories and furniture for them! Me, Beth, & Angela are addicted! When you get one you can make reservations to eat with your doll in the bistro!

Oh, and Caron......I will totally be pulling your trick. She is already not allowed to take her to church....which she isn't so happy about. But I don't want to have to send our BB to the American Girl hospital to get fixed either!

Caron said...

LOL! I guess that's still the kid in me who loves dolls. Plus it does have a lot of sentimental value. I still can't believe that little girl did it! Allie was so upset over it... she is one of those kids who is very meticulous with her things and this other kiddo... well... she's a bit of a handful!! Live and learn!

Heather said...

So cute. I love the pictures with the tree. What a great Christmas.

Chris said...

Thanks for the scoop...I'll be checking that out when Lindsay is ready!
