Santa Baby

We were expecting a fat little man to come around Grandma and Grandpa's on Christmas Eve, saying, "Ho ho ho." Instead, we had a giggly little girl with a toy stuffed up her shirt saying, "I have babies in my tummy, just like Mommy!" 

In between giggles, she was really good about adding in appropriate grunts and strained waddles. I realize that I'm significantly bigger than most people would be at 15 weeks, but I'm not that big.

Christmas morning proper took some explaining. Paige didn't quite get that she was now allowed to unwrap the presents, and that there were actually things inside the boxes for her. Plus, she was pretty sleepy, so things started off kind of slow.

Jeff gave me this awesome pregnancy pillow that I love! It's super comfy, and I used it most of the morning, but when I came back from a bathroom break, Paige had pulled it off the couch and commandeered it. Stinker.

Paige helped me pick out a gift for Daddy this year, and we had a chance to talk about giving presents and keeping secrets. She did amazingly well, and was super excited about it. When Daddy actually opened his box of popcorn, Paige said, "Merry Christmas, Daddy! You share with me?" I love this little girl.
