Well, thanks to Abbie.. Christmas was one day longer around our house. Since she spent Christmas Eve with her Dad and his family, and then Christmas Day with our family..Sadie thought it might be best to do Christmas at home one day later. I thought this was a great idea.. the longer Christmas can be.. the better. Sadly, I wasn't feeling one bit better, so it was nice just to come down stairs, be able to rest, and still enjoy the activities...
The wonders of being three.. Micky and Minnie Mouse, along with Doc McStuffins are the joy of this little one. It was a snap to find just the right gifts...
Showing Mommy all her presents......
And then, just spending quiet time on her own.. Minni Mouse is getting dressed up to go in the carriage (in the background).. don't you just love imagination...
Jesse and Tatter were allowed to play... after Abbie got herself dressed up...I'm glad the morning was like this, we enjoyed not rushing about
And Abbie enjoyed having time for her things... maybe spreading Christmas out over a few days could become a new tradition around here.
After we did gifts, we had some breakfast, and then... Ed, Sadie and Jesse headed outside. I was pretty much confined to my chair and keeping an eye on Abbie.. Camille kept an eye on me.
We have a big snowstorm coming in tomorrow. We still have about 8 cord of wood sitting outside, and a woodshed that is ready to store it all. Once wood is buried under snow, it's a real pain to deal with.. so the three decided it would all be under cover by tonite. Ed used the tractor to bring the wood over...
Sadie and Jesse did all the stacking and worked as quickly as Ed could bring it over. And they did it... a very long day of wood stacking, but it's all inside....
A truly wonderful day.. wonderful couple of days... now, if I can only feel just a bit better....
