This is the first Christmas Addie has started to understand what the Holiday is all about (from a child's perspective anyway). It was so fun to see her really get into present opening, talk about Santa Clause, Reindeer and the most fun of all is the Chipmunk Christmas CD, which we listen to in the car pretty much everyday! I was really excited for her to start learning the fun traditional Christmas carols, but looking back, Chipmunk Christmas is not a great way for a 2 year old to learn the words! Although she was actually able to master Jingle Bells and Frosty the Snowman, we get requests for those songs on a fairly regular basis!
Addie opening presents at the Muckenhirn's, she was probably the most excited about her candy cane, which you can see she is clutching in her hand and refused to let go of!
Present from Aunt Rachel, a book all about counting!
Addie is never intersted in stopping to pose for a picutre, as soon as we pull out the camera she will yell "Smile" but doesn't actually smile or look at the camera, so sometimes it is an effort to catch her sitting still and actually looking at you!
Present from Uncle Dave, industrial size tramopline that literally takes up half of the downstairs living room! Can't wait for summer to move this out to the deck and let Addie jump in the fresh air, but she does love it and gets in a few minutes of jumping every night.
Her favorite quote while jumping is "Look at me, I jump really high!" So funny, she is like 2 inches off the mat!
