Christmas Mornin'

This was our first Christmas morning where we woke up in our house as the 3 of us. You may recall last year we had Michael's family stay with us on Christmas Eve. That was great (of course!) but there was also something really nice about having Madeline all to ourselves this year. Here are some pictures from first thing in the morning.
Wearing her new "Christmas PJ's"....entering the living room to see that Santa had come.
She spots a new play house by the Christmas tree....

.....and heads straight for it. She didn't say anything or even look at us. She just went straight for the houe and started to play with it.

Then we showed her her stocking.....

This Strawberry Shortcake doll was responsible for the look in the picture above. She was VERY excited to check it out.

More pictures from later in the day to come....
