Our hotel wasn't fancy - but we had two rooms! That made it perfect for mom. Every time someone was ornery, I could banish him or her to the other room! -- We didn't get up too early on Christmas morning, so that was wonderful. Here the kids are enjoying their few presents - and not a single one complained about, or even mentioned, the smaller-than-usual pile of gifts!
McKenna is opening a gift from our landlord. She gave something to every single child! Very nice.
Cooper, busy with his new Leapster. It's a hand-held video game system - which games teach math, spelling, logic, etc. The only drawback is that he is constantly asking what certain sums are or the correct spelling of some word. I guess we can't complain about that. -- This is the surprise that Ivy accidently ruined before Christmas. She didn't even know I had gotten him one (she didn't even know what it was!!) but when she saw it on television one day she told Cooper that that is what mom was giving him for Christmas! Little turkey.
Ivy playing with some new groceries for her shopping cart - and wearing her new Dora the Explorer pj's. I finally got that off of her a couple of days ago to wash it.
Maia and Ivy each got a puppy carrier with the puppy and all kinds of accessories inside. Maia keeps good track of hers, but I find little bones and dog-ear bows of Ivy's all over the house.
Coop's gift from our landlord Maria.
Everyone in their Christmas Eve pajamas.
