Christmas 2008

We had a great Christmas, spending most of the day at my sister Sally's house. Madeleine woke up early as usual (6:30) at our own house and I tried to interest her in some presents that were under our tree (Santa was coming to Sally's house). But she had no interest in presents - just Blues Clues on Noggin, thank you very much! I finally got her to open one of them, and she did love her new colorful balls from Grace and Ruthie Bott. Another hit was the great pair of giraffe slippers from cousin Jess & Mike -- M. loves these! (you'll see them in the photos below).
