Christmas

Christmas was so awesome for our little family! Having Ava just makes every holiday even more magical. She loved her gifts. We had lots to open all of us. Russell was so good to me as he is every year!



I gave her a little photo album. She really loves to point to us in the pictures.Here we are at my parents house on Christmas Eve.

Here is our TREE! Every year I say it's my favorite. And this year was no exception! We really had such a perfect full tree. I took this a few days after Christmas so there aren't any gifts under it. I usually am so good about taking one one Christmas morning but I was just so excited this year I forgot. Ava was really good about the tree. She never pulled on it or really tried to knock any of the decorations off. I was pretty impressed. I had so many people tell me horror stories about babies pulling down trees. But she was great. So we will continue to get a real tree :)`

One of her gifts was a highchair! I can't believe we went so long without one. We just used the bumbo with the tray you can get with it. Wow that thing was so annoying. It is amazing to have the highchair finally. And she absolutely loves it!

Riding her new car on Christmas morning ;)

Aww I just love her!

The car turned into a walker. Man she was so into that. She pushed that thing everywhere, banging it into the sides of everything..

One of her favorite gifts was her Ni Hao Kai-lan doll. She loves that tv show more than any other. Its on Nickjr and its so cute. She would kiss and hug the doll and if you push on the dolls tummy she says a few phrases and sings a song. Ava was pretty excited about that!
