Christmas

Nana gave her this adorable Xmas dress and matching hat -

 I can't believe how fast Christmas came and went. We decided to be really low key and spend our Christmas just the three of us. We have never spent a holiday with out spending time with at least one of our families so it was very different for both Branden and I. It worked out perfectly though because then Peri was really able to enjoy her gifts and we could stop opening them when she got overwhelmed - which she did- We have church at 10 so we kept the miss upstairs so she wouldn't see what Santa brought until after.  She was so wiggly and antsy during church, like she just couldn't wait to get home.

 Santa brought her a kitchen set, the block thing, Little Einsteins, and sippy cups in her stocking

 She loves the kitchen set, especially opening and closing everything while putting things into them. She has taken a great interest in the microwave and insists on putting everything in it, including her clothes. And she just loves talking on her phone, we keep finding it in the weirdest places.

yes those are all hers, spoiled little thing.

 This dancing Mickey she has a love/hate relationship with. She loves to hold him but kind of freaks out when he dances and just backs away slowly. She has the same relationship with the Lucky Ducks game we got her.

Peri got overwhelmed with opening things, so she waited until the next morning to finish - unfortunately the camera was put away so I missed the photo op.

 She got this adorable hat with a matching apron and baking utensils that she enjoys wearing around the house. All in all she made out like a bandit and so far has enjoyed everything she got, from the fun new toys to the darling new clothes.

Branden and I didn't do to badly ourselves
He got : Bike pedals and shoes, clothes, candy, xbox games, movies, sunglasses
I got : cake pop maker and supplies, 2 cook books, a recipe book that I can add to, sunglasses, Harry Potter movies, the newest Harry Potter xbox game, and some make up
We got : gift cards, an air mattress, the Kinect for xbox, a few kinect games, calendars, a book

It was very low key but just right. This last week has been nice to get Christmas put away and just spend time together,  We've gone to the park, went to zoo lights, played at the mall, and had some fun playing our new games.
