Christmas Day at Mama & Papa D's

After the girls got up from their nap/quiet time, we headed over to Mom & Dad's house for a late lunch and to celebrate with my side of the family. The girls are truly blessed for sure with lots of family that love them and want to give them gifts. We had a great afternoon exchanging gifts and having fun watching watching the girls enjoy it all! We were thrilled that Ganny, Aunt Rachel & Susan joined us. Bailey's Elmo gift was a big hit especially with James & Aunt Rachel. Overall we had a good Christmas, but we all missed Papa a lot.

And yes there are no pictures of me, I was the one taking pictures while Eric filmed.

Christmas Morning

Reagan woke up close to 7:30 on Christmas morning thanks to me opening the gate to go downstairs (well mainly to let Jonathan downstairs) and when she did wake up she didn't realize at first it was Christmas morning. But then not long after wards she did and was ready to see what Santa got her! She had to wait a few minutes for Bailey to get up since Bailey was still sleeping! Bailey woke up and we got the girls ready and headed downstairs to see if Santa came! The girls enjoyed seeing what Santa got them and had fun pulling everything out of their stocking. We then ate breakfast and then opened our gifts from each other! Bailey is getting to be a pro at opening her gifts! After that they got to play with some toys and then it was nap/quiet time before we headed over to Mama & Papa D's!

Well Reagan looks like she is ready to see if Santa came!
Wow!

Reagan found an Ariel doll!
