the BIG adventures of a little girl...

WELCOME to the world of Madeleine Mary, a charming little princess with a neverending smile, bright blue eyes, and an insatiable curiosity that keeps her parents constantly on their toes.

Christmas #2

On Christmas Eve, we headed to Auntie Jenny & Uncle John's to spend a few days with my cousins Daniel, Morgan, and Gunnar. We also went to Mass with Daniel's cousin, Jack, and his family. I wanted to sit buy Auntie Jenny and Jack most of the time. When we got back to the house, we had a fun dinner of appetizers, and we had lots of play time. Remember Daniel's firetruck from last summer? We played in there again. Jack kept coming in to tickle me. Daniel likes to fold people up in the truck, but I didn't mind. I do that to myself in my tent at home. Sometimes I even try to get in my without unfolding it at all. Mom says I'm quite imaginative already.
I dressed as a shark for Christmas, what was your costume? Hee hee! It was Daniel's Halloween costume. He wore it for a while earlier, and when he got tired of it, I wanted to try it on.
We got to open our gifts from Uncle Brian and Grandma Mary first. We planned to save the rest until later.
Isn't this how everyone opens a big gift?

Uncle Brian, we loved Backpack (and Rescue Pack) so much we made Gunnar get it open for us. He's a great big brother/cousin and was happy to do it. He, like us, probably would have been happier to see YOU there in person to do it. Since you were just here for Thanksgiving, we'll cut you a little slack...but we still miss you!
We're checking out Dora and Diego on our View Masters. And wearing our new slippers. Mine may be a little big, but I still love them...thank you Auntie Jenny. I wore my Dora jammies again the other night, and wear the robe most days just for fun. Jammies are my favorite clothes...if only Mom would let me wear them all day!
