Christmas Part 3...

...Back home.  We made certain to make arrangements with Santa to drop off some presents at our house, even though we weren't home on Christmas morning.  They were waiting for us when we walked in the front door when we got home!  The girls were so excited to see MORE presents =).  I cannot believe we didn't think to have our video camera ready, so I'll try to describe it to you instead...  Aunt Kelley and Uncle Joe left Princess chairs for the girls, unwrapped, in front of the tree, with bows on them.  Addy went inside, while Jeff and I worked on getting the car unpacked.  She came running down the front sidewalk screaming...look, look, look!!!  She had her chair and was carrying it down the front walk to show it to us!!!  I cannot believe we didn't get it on video.  It was awesome.  Then we took the girls out back to show them the playhouse Em had sent for them...Thanks Em. (and thanks Papa for putting it together while we were gone).  It has provided hours of entertainment for the girls..Thanks again Em!

Here's a few pics of the girls opening gifts.  Please notice...it was very important that Santa use princess paper to wrap the girls' gifts, per Addy's request. 

Here's a cute shot of the girls hanging out in their chairs watching a little tv before bed.

We realized the next morning, that we had forgotten to give Addy her present from Gi and Papa, a new bike.  So, they set it out in the foyer for her to see when she woke up from her nap.  Here she is riding it for the first time.  I'm sure we will have many more pictures of Addy on her bike as she LOVES it.  It's hard to get her off of it sometimes...and she's pretty good at it.  Notice it has no pedals.  She has to push it with her feet.  She already will push with both feet and coast a little ways.  (It is supposed to take the place of training wheels...so we'll see.)  Thanks Gi and Papa! 

 Here's a video of her on the bike.  She was reluctant to ride it at first, so Gi had to get on her bike and demonstrate how to do it.  After that, she was ready to go!
