We started our Christmas festivitie with a quiet celebration at home--just Josh, Noah and me. Then we join my parents at my sister's house to celebrate as an entire family. We tried to get some pictures of my parents with their grandkids.
It is a little difficult trying to get a 6 month old and a 16 month old to both look at the camera at the same time. I think my sister and I took 50 pictures of this pose between the two of us.....this is the closest we got to getting a decent pic!
See how much easier it is to catch just one baby looking at the camera. This only took one shot.
Ava is at such a fun age right now. She's talking all the time (we can even understand some of the words). She loved Christmas. She liked tearing the paper. We got her two books--Little Hoot and Little Pea. Plus some bath crayons and tablets to turn the bath water different colors. She loved the crayons. Mark told her, "Ava, these are for the bathtub." She immediately stood up, picked up her crayons and went to stand by the bathroom door. She seemed a little confused that we didn't give her a bath right away but insisted she open more presents.
She enjoyed helping other people open their presents too. Here she is modeling my sister's scarf.
She also helped unwrap a purse. She threw it over her shoulder and said "bye bye" repeatedly while waving and walking around the room.
Ava got Elmo Live. She loved it although she doesn't look totally thrilled in this picture.
After all the presents we ate lasagna. Yum!
Then it was time for the little ones to get on jammies and pose under the tree. Sweet cousins!
