Being that I am large and round and getting closer to the due date, we decided to stay home for christmas this year. We had a really nice time together.
The festivites started on Wed. with a visit from our Colorado friends Mark and Shayna, and their almost 1 year old Aiden. Joe, Korey and Beni, also almost 1 came over as well.
Tim had Kayla all dressed up and decked out in her sunglasses for our trip to the science center. Kayla got to play lots in the toddler area, and we got to go see an Imax film. Kayla made it almost all the way through. We then had a nice Indian dinner afterwards which wound Kayla up so much she had trouble sleeping. She had a great time and her shirt and face were both quite yellow from the spices.
We opened presents on Christmas eve, and spent a large part of the day cooking. Kayla wasn’t feeling well and so we took it easy. Tim made stuffed squash and I made a soup and we feasted. Kayla enjoyed handing out the presents more than unwrapping them, but she loved each of her gifts.
Kayla even had time to draw on her new easel. Santa brought her some paints the next day.
Despite Kayla still being a bit under the weather, we decided to go to Magnussun park on Tuesday. Kayla had fun walking in the opposite direction we were trying to go and looking at all the dogs. She of course brought one of her new dolls and didn’t want to part with her.
