Just as we thought, it took forever for us to get her to go through everything in her stocking. She saw the Princess fingernail polish and was happy as a clam! Guess we should have stopped there!
We finally made it through all the trinkets and fun things she had in her stocking and moved on to opening presents. She opened a few presents for her and Will but lost interest (just wanted to play with the presents she had and the stocking stuff) until we got some food in her. Then, she was good to go for a little while again.
About 10:30, we headed out in the snowstorm to go to Grandpa and Grandma's house to open presents. Addie was so excited to find that Santa had left her a giant princess tent there! She got a doll 8 in 1 playset complete with a stroller, highchair, pack n play and change pad. She played with this stuff in her tent (with her stuffed Curious George) while everyone else opened presents.
After hanging out with my family for awhile, we headed over to Gaga's house. There was a wonderful spread of food and Addie was thrilled to be hanging out with "the boys" (her cousins). We finally opened presents there and then the kids disappeared to play and gorge themselves on all the chocolate and candy laying around.
We finally headed home about 4:30 - got our mess cleaned up here, put Addie to bed, Will tried out his Christmas present and Clay and I enjoyed a nice, quiet, yummy dinner together.
It was a great day! Merry Christmas!
