Christmas at Grandma and Grandpa's

On Christmas Day, we went over to Grandma and Grandpa's house to open gifts first. It was just us and Grandma and Grandpa so it was a bit quieter than usual. We opened our gifts over there first, then headed over to Uncle Jim and Aunt Jill's to meet up with everyone else.

Opening up stockings - Leah got a little doll

She tasted the doll and found it to her liking!

Cameron opened his stocking - he was excited to find an orange in there

Yummm, these are tasty fingers

One of Cameron's gifts was a really nice handmade sweater. Grandma started making it for him and then her eyesight got worse, so she wasn't able to finish it. She had someone help her finish it (Grandma, help me out here, who was it who finished it?). It is very cute and has adorable tractor buttons. Cameron really likes it and put it right on.

What a handsome boy!

In the early afternoon we headed over to Uncle Jim and Aunt Jill's. We spent the rest of the day there, eating, opening gifts and hanging out. Leah was being a little fussy so I put her into a box. Turned out, she really liked sitting in there!

Miss Leah, still very happy in the box. Also, check out the bow on her head - so cute!

Hello Mama, are you taking my picture?

What a cute boy!
