Christmas with Gramps and Nana

Remember the book Addison got on the Plaza Saturday night?  Well, she loves it and shared it with Gramps as soon as we arrived at my parents house Sunday night to celebrate Christmas. 
 
Lauren helped Nana out in the kitchen getting dinner ready.  She is such a good kid.  
 
Then the girls snuck away after dinner to play "I spy" on the quilt.  They do this every time we are at my parents house.  
 
After dinner it was time for presents. Addison loved this princess stroller.  
The umbrellas were a huge hit too!
All Claire wanted was this cash register, and she really did not need to open anything else.  She was completely happy with the cash register....all night long.  
 
Addison was just as excited as Lauren with the Orbeez foot spa.  Both girls have played with it a lot over the last few days. 

Lauren also got a journal.  She wrote a very creative story that night for all of us.  She is very creative when it comes to writing and art work. 

 
Nana made the grand kids quilts with their names on them.  
 
Here are my girls.  
 
Addison and Mama, my grandma, healthy as ever! 

Sophie hung out all night, happy as can be.  She is such a great baby. 
 
 
These are the treasures from Gramps's workshop.  I have some pretty talented parents!  
 
Jen and I got together Friday night and made this Christmas tree for my parents.  

Here it is a little closer up with Lauren's hands on the bottom, then Claire, Addison, and Sophie on top.  
We had a great Christmas celebration with my family Sunday night, and the fun was only beginning with Christmas Eve activities and Christmas day activities.

Christmas at Gramps and Nana's House

Before I get to New Year's Eve I have to blog about Christmas at Gramp's and Nana's house.  We headed over there Monday night and enjoyed a great dinner and lots of great gifts for the kids. 
Nana and Lauren did a lot of reading that night. 
Lauren also enjoyed holding Baby Sophie.  Lauren adores little babies.  She is so good with them. 

Santa came to Gramps and Nana's house too!  Each grandchild had 4 gifts from Santa and a stocking full of goodies. 

Addison loved her monkey pillow and blanket.  She has been carrying around the Barbie puppy all week too. 

Lauren got a nice big Hello Kitty blanket, some Zoobles, a Barbie case to hold clothes and Barbies, and a Barbie purse. 

Lauren waited very patiently to open up the gifts from Gramps and Nana and Aunt Jen and Uncle Steve too!  Aunt Jen got Lauren some peace sign clothes and jammies, and a necklace.  She also got her some Hello Kitty stuff as well.  Gramps and Nana got her some clothes, Sketchers shoes that light up, a Barbie doll, and the Polly Pocket Race to the Concert.  I finally got it put together tonight, and Addison loves it!  I am sure Lauren will come around.  She was watching a movie with Daddy. 

Addison's favorite thing by far was this package of Strawberry Shortcake dolls.  She played with them all night.  She also got a new Magna Doodle, some clothes, a Hello Kitty cruise ship, Zoobles and some Legos from Aunt Jen. 

Thank you Gramps and Nana for a Merry Christmas.
