Christmas

We had a great Christmas, just a lot of it! We had our own Christmas at home before we left and opened gifts from each other and to Cailin. Then, we had Christmas a few days later with Enie. Then on to my dad's house for another round and then to my mom's for the finale! It was a fun week!

Cailin really loved openening her presents this year. She'd say, "Yay, presents!" and clap her hands. So sweet!


I loved how she smiled when she opened this baby! She loves baby dolls!



This is Christmas morning and what she got from Santa. She loved it.



She got this cute Cabbage Patch from Uncle Dee. She loves her! It reminded me of so many Christmas' when I was little and that would be our Santa gift. A new Cabbage Patch doll.



This is the sweetest picture! She was telling Pe-paw thank you for her sweater that he and Me-maw gave her.

This picture cracks me up! My dad is wrapped around her little fingers! She loves to tell him to do different things and he does them. They usually do this, she makes him jump up and down, spin in circles. It's so funny. She loves whenever she has someone copy her!

Christmas tidbits

Once again, it's been awhile since I blogged. So, I have some new pictures to share of course. This one is of Cailin sitting in front of our church's Christmas tree.
I always love when they put it up, really gets me into the Christmas spirit. This next pic is of Cailin with her church "grandparents". They've adopted her as their own and she loves them! She always runs to them as soon as she sees them. They have become our family here, since we have to be away from our family. They are such a blessing for us.

She loved having her picture taken with them, she kept saying "Cheese". See how she has her arm around Thurman too! She adores him! They are going to babysit her tonight while Warren and I go to his Christmas party for work.

Warren and I took Cailin to the Santa at the mall last week and she was totally scared of him. She didn't even want to stand beside him! So, at Warren's squadron's Christmas party last weekend, she watched as all the other kids went up to Santa to get their present and sit on his lap. She did it too! Yeah!

Here's the picture that Warren got of her sitting on his lap.

Cailin, just came over to see what I was doing and she saw this picture of her and Santa. She said, "Mommy, who's that?" So I said, "It's Cailin and Santa." Then, she said, "Good job." Funny! Well, that's all that I've got for now! Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! Bye!
