Christmas Morning

The girls were so excited for Christmas morning, but especially to see what Santa had brought them. Gwen got the Sleeping Beauty version of the game Pretty Pretty Princess.

Grace got a 4-in-1 game set. There was a Princess game, a Tinkerbell game, a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse game, and a Cars game, all in one box.

Georgia got a Tangled dress up kit. Gwen and Grace had gotten dress up kits (princess and tinkerbell) last year from Grandma Congdon, so this was the perfect thing for Santa to bring Georgia as she was getting tired of trying to get her sisters to share with her.

The girls couldn't wait to get out of the bedroom and go see what Santa brought and to open presents. Gwen is all about making faces at the camera now.

Grace was jumping around on the mattresses she was so excited.

Grandma Congdon grabbed Georgia to help her out since Daddy was busy setting up the video camera and Mommy was busy trying to take pictures of all the chaos.

Georgia was so thrilled with her dress up stuff-she wore it all morning long and didn't want to tak it off.

I think Grace had more fun going through her stocking than she did playing her new game. She loved getting fruit in her stocking-she really loves oranges.

Gwen just kept digging and digging, making sure that she got everything out, before she started to really look at what she got.

Georgia's big present this year was a tag junior reader from Rob and I. She had so much fun with it and we quickly read through every book we got her to go with it. She still loves sitting with it and reading books and calls the carrying case her little "ba-pack."

Grace's big present from us this year was a Leapster Explorer. Her older cousins got a dsi and a psp for their birthdays this past year, and the girls are always wanting to play on them, so we thought Leapsters would be a good compromise. Grace also got the games Toy Story 3 and Tangled to play on her Leapster.

Gwen also got a Leapster Explorer. I have a hard time getting her off of it, but they are awesome. The games they make for these really help teach them about spelling, math, writing, science, solving problems, and things like that. Gwen got the games Up and Princess and the Frog to play on it.

The girls got some other things besides stuff to do with their Leapfrog stuff-hand knitted blankets for each girl from Robbie's Nana, Pillow Pets from Grandma Congdon, new books, a huge thing of crayons, a new board game, baby dolls and baby doll stuff, movies, and a few other small things. We only opened gifts from Rob's side of the family, and waited to open gifts from my side of the family until we went to my parents house the day after Christmas. The girls had so much fun with their new stuff though and Robbie did as well. I finally caved this year and for Christmas we got ourselves (Rob and I) a Wii. I don't think Rob stopped playing Super Mario or Donkey Kong most of the time that we were there. I finally got a cricut-hooray!! It was a great Christmas.
