Christmas morning came very early at our house. We got up at 6:00 AM to open presents from Santa with Mae and Lucy and then Coby's parents came over so we could open presents with them.
This is what Mae woke up to on Christmas morning. Although it doesn't look like much, remember we still had THREE Christmases to go, so we figured we'd go easy on the girls since it's A LOT easier for us to do that than to try convince the grandparents! The big present by the tree is a big cabinet that used to be my mom's and then mine that I refinished. Inside it, we wrapped a bunch of play pots and pans, pretend food and utensils so that when Mae opened the cabinet there were more presents for her to rip open. Technically the cabinet is for both girls, but it'll be awhile before Lu is able to use it. The table and chairs were from Great Grandpa and Grandma Peterson, and probably the hit of Christmas! Mae LOVES to play at her table with her new food and dishes!
I should have taken before AND after pics (hindsight) because it most definitely did NOT look like this when we were done!
Like I said, Mae LOVES her table--we could hardly pry her away to open more presents!
Santa also brought Mae a little puppy that barks and walks (not his most well thought out present I might add) and she got pretty excited about him! It doesn't even bother her when he barks non-stop---the rest of us aren't quite so lucky!
Check out this styling babe in her new robe and jammies from Nana and Papa!
Not everyone was quite as chipper as Mae at this early hour...
Yep, its that early!
Even Lu was a little thrown as to why we had made her get up!
Santa brought Lucy a butterfly decoration for her room, a little dolly and lots of little things in her stocking--ie the chew toy she is wearing on her arm thanks to her big sis!
For Coby's big present from his parents, they got him a 9mm (I think) gun and let's just say he was pretty happy about it!
We had such a wonderful Christmas morning! Thanks Santa, Nana and Papa!
