Christmas Morning

{Editors note: this isn't even close to being a comprehensive post about all of her presents. She received many and we were not diligent about photographing, but she loves everything she got so they'll make it online eventually because she plays with them constantly!}

Happy kids in their Christmas jammas having the oranges from their stockings:

Oly opened one or two presents but was most interested in doing some art on the pad of paper I brought out to list all of our gifts.

First a present for Mama from Papa Guy: a mirror that I've been wanting for a long, long time! Someone's collecting punched tin ceilings from torn down New York City tenement buildings and making them into mirrors. So awesome!

Here's Oly taking a 2 second nap on her new Dinosaur pillow pet from Silly Grandmom:

Here she is rocking to sleep her 'Money Bunny' from Jeff and Niki:

She got a tea set from Grandma and announces regularly throughout the day, "Guys! It's tea party time!" Where did she learn that?

She had a pretty hard time opening presents Christmas morning. She became overwhelmed and overstimulated very quickly and after about 30 minutes left us to go into the tv room, put a blanket over her head and announce that she needed some time to herself.

But after a nap she rebounded and we opened many, many more. Like a giant sticker book from Nana and Grandpa: (She has never once put a sticker on a piece of paper. They go on people or furniture)

And books about baby animals:
