CHRISTMAS MEMORIES


It must be a new tradition for us to have someone sick for Christmas. This year it was Shelby. It was Christmas Eve and we actually had to take her to the doctors on the way to Grampy and Grammy's house because the night before she woke up with ear aches. She ended up having a double ear infection. Once on the medicine though she started getting better by Christmas day, but on Christmas Eve after opening presents she needed a little rest.


One of Tyler's favorite gifts this year which he had asked for many times was the Lego Castle.


He also got more Star War figures which he was excited about.


Shelby really wanted to get Pochantas because she was the last Princess she needed to complete her collection. It was in a package from Tyler, but Shelby was convinced that Grampy and Grammy had gotten it for her so when it was her turn to open she kept choosing from the pile from Grampy and Grammy. She kept getting disappointed when it wasn't Pochantas. So finally my mom said to me, "Can't she open that soon so she'll be excited about what she's getting from us!" So here she is opening Pochantas and saying "YES!"


Grampy and Grammy got Tyler a Sponge Bob bowling ball. In another post I will put the pictures from our bowling game with the new ball. They actually pulled off a little scheme to get Tyler to the bowling alley ahead of time to have him measured so his ball could have the holes drilled for him so he could bowl right away. Tyler had no idea.


One of Shelby's favorite gifts this year was her new cat which she has named Abby.



Another favorite gift for Shelby was her new doll house.


Here are Tyler's favorite gifts that he spent Christmas morning building.

Hi Tyler and Shelby,

I love the pictures of you with your Christmas gifts.
We sure did have fun watching you open them and playing.

Love,
Grammy

Jenn, I loved your first sentence! "It must be a new tradition for us for someone to be sick on Christmas!" Boy, can I relate!! Same happened to us again this year too, and we even had to cancel our trip to be with extended family because of it. In fact, we are going on week FIVE of non-stop sickness in our house! What in the world?! Too crazy! Please tell Shelby that Audree thinks her new dollhouse is very, very cool. :) She must be having lots of fun with it. Hope you guys are having a good start to the new year. Take care! Annmarie
