Fourtieth Week

This week started off with daddy's work Christmas party. Alee was really good the whole time, except when she met Santa. This was her first experience with Santa, and she was not too impressed. She also does not like teddy bears that sing, so this Christmas season a lot of things scared her. At the party she received a very cute Fisher Price fishing boat, it goes in the bathtub, and she really likes all the things you can do with it.

Most of this week daddy got to stay home with Alee and mommy, and that was very nice. We spent Christmas eve at Grandma and Grandpa Hughes playing cards, and board games. We then went home to bed, and woke up to Alee's first Christmas morning.

One of the traditions we wanted to start was to open Alee's stocking on our bed in the morning, and we did just that. Their was not much in there this year (socks, a few toys, some mum mums) but she really liked to bang everything together and make noise. I am sure that as she grows older this will become one of her favorite things to do on Christmas morning.

Later on we opened presents with Grand maman, Popo, mommy and daddy. She was not very spoiled, because she has a lot of things already, and she will not remember this Christmas as much.

Christmas night was spent with Grandma Hughes, Grandpa Hughes, Aunt Shelley, Uncle Trevor and Cousin Eric. Alee got two really nice pairs of Nike shoes, some toys, an ornament and of course a beautiful new Red Wagon (sure to be used for many years to come).

Alee and Eric also got matching Pajamas and got their picture taken in front of the Tree, hopefully that is another tradition we can continue with the cousins as they grow older.

All in all Christmas was great, and next week will be busy with New Years.

Tis' the season to be busy... falalala.
