As much fun as Christmas Morning is as a kid, I would have to say without a doubt, Christmas morning is much more fun as a parent. It was SO much fun watching how excited the girls were as they came down the stairs to see what Santa had brought for them. Elle wrote her letter to Santa a few weeks back and asked for a baby doll and Hannah Montana make-up and clothes. Gwen loves anything to do with babies and dress-up clothes. Santa definitely got it right this year. They each got their own baby dolls complete with bathtubs and diaper bags. Elle got a highchair for her dolly and Gwen got a stroller. Elle did get Hannah Montana make-up and dress-up clothes. She put on a concert for us complete with tickets. She sang and danced to the song, "The Best of Both Worlds". She is 100% serious and it is 100% HILARIOUS! The ride-on toys were also a hit. We pulled the rug up in the kitchen so that they could make a complete circle around the kitchen island. I can't tell you how many loops they have made in the last 24 hours. So fun! This morning when Elle woke up she asked me how many "more sleeps" until the next Christmas. Lucky for Santa (he is TIRED) we have 364 more sleeps until we can do it all again.
