Christmas Day Recap

We had a great Christmas day. Lazy and relaxed. Pj's for 24 hours! Perfect.

The girls were a blast. So much fun at this age. They each got little couches...I've always seen these but thought they were a little old for them, but my niece had one and they loved them.
Brooke got an inflatable ball pit that she loved...especially when her sisters weren't crowding her out of it and actually gave her the chance to play.
Baileigh's highlight of the day was an American Girl doll, GT22 to be exact...she had been asking for this specific doll for awhile and was really surprised because I had told her that she was going to have to wait.
Brooke spent her day vacuuming! Too bad it doesn't really work, my house would actually be clean, well...cleaner.
Mckenna asked Santa for Moon Sand. The verdict is still out as to whether or not I hate the stuff...I've already established the rule that it can not be used within 48 hours after Mommy has mopped and only during Brooke's nap time.
Baileigh asked Santa for skates, and since I had on good word that he was going to deliver we also got Mckenna some skates. We're heading to a roller rink tomorrow morning...skating at this age is supposed to help a lot with skiing, which we hope to expose the girls to next year.
Everyone in the family got Nerf guns. We know friends who have nightly Nerf gun wars and we liked the idea....especially Daddy! The girls developed a target practice game. We worked on our aim by using our Christmas cards as targets...so if you were really loved you were lucky enough to be a part of our game.
Despite not doing anything all day we were all pretty tired by bed time. Mckenna's final question of the night was "Mommy, when will we it be Christmas again?"
