The Sunday before Christmas we let Sophie practice her unwrapping skills on a Christmas outfit we bought her. I think she did pretty well.
We spent a lot of time driving over to Daniel's dad's house and Erin's house after Marci and her family got here for the holidays. The girls all have a lot of fun together. Stella didn't poke Sophie in the eye this year, but again she was really sweet to her and gave her hugs, but after a few days I think she just wanted Sophie to get out of her space. Fair enough, she is an only kid after all. Erin's house is always fun and filled with exciting new toys for children of all ages. Of course the simplest of things end up being the most fun, they all had fun with these faux snowballs.
Daniel's family tradition is to have the big dinner on Christmas Eve. I like that because I feel like Christmas Eve gets neglected otherwise and then you can just munch on junk food, stay in your PJs, and do whatever you want on Christmas. The kiddos opened new jammies and then we did a nativity puppet show. Daniel's mom had made hand puppets for everyone which makes the nativity so much more entertaining.
Then sugar cookies were decorated for Santa and it was off to bed...
