Presents...

Do you think she'll look back at her first Christmas and accidentally mistake her mama for the Grinch?

First, I decided I didn't have the patience to put up a Christmas Tree. LJ gets into everything. I had nightmare flashes of her pulling the tree down on herself, swallowing an ornament hook, or worse.

Second, we decided not to get her any Christmas presents. Before you judge, realize that the girl has more toys then she knows what to do with, and we are having a huge 1st birthday party for her 4 weeks later. And to be honest, she will be just as excited by the wrapping paper her brother tosses at her after he opens up his presents. I think it's a win-win for everyone.

Aunt KiKi came by Saturday morning to bring LJ and her brother their Christmas presents. She did a pretty good job unwrapping the most adorable teapot set you've ever seen. She even let me put a bow on her head - and kept it there for over an hour.
