Is there anything cuter than a toddler in a bathrobe?
I think not. :)

3 Christmases

So, I finally, just today, took my first look at all of our Christmas pictures. And am happy to share a few highlights of our 3 Christmas celebrations. (That is, J's family, my family and our own with just the 3 of us at home.)
#1.

The best part of my family's Christmas is that we all got to be together at Mom and Dad's. All 12 of us. For an entire weekend. It was wonderful. (see previous post below for some cousin fun and a little Auntly bragging) Here is Audrey having some fun with Grandma and Grandpa. She loved every bit of it.

Especially the Little Tikes Cozy Coupe. We could hardly get her out of it. (See below for pictures)

#2.

The following weekend, we got to head north to spend Christmas for some more family fun.

Here is Audrey really hamming it up with Grammy and Grampa...

Audrey is quite in love with any and all attention that she gets and was in heaven for most of the weekend. She was also quite in love with J's little cousin and readily made herself a new friend. How cute are these two?

She was also really starting to get the hang of the whole gift opening idea.

And even managed to find some quiet time with Aunt Sheena amongst all the excitement.

#3. Home Again.

Audrey definitely had the gift opening down by the time we had our Christmas with her at home.

Got the proper level of excitement down as well...

And here we are...Audrey's 2nd Christmas over. It was so wonderful spending so much time with all of our families and just watching Audrey totally take over. I can't remember a better Christmas than this one. She is continually such a joy. We are so in love...and thank God every day for such an amazing gift in this amazing little girl.
