Our Own Little Family Christmas

Because we travel every year at Christmas, mommy and daddy like to do our own presents at our house some morning before we go. This last Saturday was the perfect day for it...cold and rainy outside! We had a yummy breakfast, got to Skype with Uncle T and Auntie Brooke to open each others gifts before they set sail for the Caribbean and then we opened our own gifts. We spent the rest of the morning playing with our new toys! It was a fun start to the Christmas festivities!!
Eggs, cinnamon rolls & chocolate milk

Christmas Cookies

For the past few years, every Christmas mommy and I have driven out to Grammy and Grandpa's house for the day to help Grammy and Mormor make Norwegian Christmas cookies. This year they let me help! I think I ate more than I helped make but I had to be sure they tasted ok!

Mommy and I did some more baking at home...she let me lick the spatula and it was SO good!
