Christmas!

We had a fun Christmas here at home. Isabella woke up around her normal time and I tried to show her the crumbs Santa left on the cookie plate and all the new presents that were there and she didn't seem too impressed.

I told her she had to pose by the tree before she got breakfast, so this is the picture of her totally fake pose:




We spent the morning lazily sitting around and preparing lunch and Uncle John and Aunt Kristy came over around 12:30. We ate lunch - turkey, stuffing, green bean casserole, salads and pie and it was very good. We tried to get Isabella down for a nap after that, but she just wasn't having it. 1 day after turning two and she's already boycotting naps! We tried to bring her down for some quiet time while the rest of us opened gifts. She stayed awake and started opening gifts of her own and enjoying it. She got lots and lots of fun stuff, and was a little more into opening presents today.



Later, when it was dinnertime I put her in her chair to have some leftovers. I left the room for a few minutes and she threw a fit. I could tell she was tired, so I decided I would let her eat while sitting on my lap and pretty soon she was just out. It was only 5:30ish. Too early for bed! Still, we changed her into her pjs and just held her while she slept for a bit. She woke up about an hour later about as cranky as I've ever seen her. Finally, we got her to calm down and just lay on me for a bit. A little while later, she was up and about, so we let her stay up and just put her to bed around 10pm. Crazy!

Cute PJs. You can tell she's cranky. Look at those rosy cheeks.
