Our Christmas 2008....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We had an early start today...as expected. The husband and I went to bed late because of the 'wrapping party'. The little one was very excited to go to sleep so I couldn't start wrapping earlier even if I wanted to. Everytime she heard something she'd call.

She finally fell asleep around 10..which is an hour later than her normal bedtime. The 'elves' went to work soon after and finished at around 1 AM...sleepy of course. I was hoping she'd wake up a bit late...not a chance. Dad heard her moving around at about 7 AM so he had to jump out of bed because he wanted to capture her first reactions when she saw the presents under the tree. Oohs and ahhs were mostly the sounds we heard for the next hour or so. She liked what she got of course.

The husband and I both fell asleep midday while the little one was tinkering with her 'loots'. She got a lot of hats because she loves [adores] hats and there's not a day she's not wearing one. Here's one of them...with her new toy 'Foxy'....


She likes all of her presents but she of course has a favorite....this one...

It's an Ipod that she requested the last minute. Of course the first site she had to visit was Mom's blog....hehehe....

The rest of our Christmas was spent just relaxing around the house. We watched "Kung Fu Panda" before dinner. For dinner we had turkey with cranberry, cheesy potatoes, baked beans, deviled eggs. For dessert we had the brownies and pumpkin pie we baked yesterday plus some chocolate ice cream.

After dinner, this is what we did....




Yep, we tinkered with my Christmas present and took some pictures with its camera. That's how our Christmas went....well, day is not over yet but there's nothing else to do but go to bed...at least for us anyway. I feel like dropping already while typing this.

I hope you had a great Christmas everyone!

ang bata nga naman. ang daling mabola haha. glad she likes every present. question: that ipod, is it the real thing or toy?pardon the ignorance alam mo na, walang anak malay ko ba kung anong toys available dyan. or real ipod ba? kasi may web browser siya. ay ang gulo ko!

J said…
hahaha, o eh ako talaga igno nga. I would never have thought toy siya kasi may web capability kaya lang knowing how high tech na mga toys akala ko toy. a really awesome gift!

the "little princess" is really very pretty. looks to me like she was having a blast trying on her new hat... kami, christmas was spent quietly, mga tulog! i just woke them up at the stroke of midnight, watched some fireworks and feasted on the noche buena together... kalderetang kambing, pancit palabok, a little chinese ham at fruit salad, yon lang, neighbors sent a little lechon and pancit miki. Dumami tuloy handa! overall, it was a fun evening for the kids. natulog ng busog! lol! thats basically how it went for us this christmas. ciao J! merry christmas ulit!

Hope you have a bountiful 2009!

Humahabol sa pag-comment kahit na I'm here in Lopez, Quezon.

What a gift! An i-pod for a child. Hindi na ma-reach ang mga bata ngayon. Super techie na talaga sila!

Wala akong masabi sa beauty ninyong mag-mommy! Paramihin pa yang beautiful breed na yan!

Merry Christmas to you and your family! Hugz!
