After a very busy holiday, I’m finally ready to catch you up on our Christmas festivities.
Let’s start with the fun stuff: The videos!
Avery has become quite the cook. Not only does she love to play with Mommy’s cookware and utensils, she also has her own kitchen at Mommaw Clark’s house. But she needed some of her own dishes at our house. So Mommaw and Poppaw Clark got her a pretty tea set. She was very excited to get it! She’s saying, “Cook” in the video below as she opened the package:
She also got some pots, pans and food from Great Aunt Pauline and Great Uncle Jim. She loves using all of this to serve food and drinks to her babies…and Mommy and Daddy!
Most kids aren’t very pleased to get clothes for Christmas. But that wasn’t Avery this year. Every time she opened a gift of clothing, she threw her hands to her mouth in excitement and said, “Ooooh!” Then she pulled the items out of the box and tried to put them on. Let’s hope she keeps this up because she’ll always get some clothes for Christmas.
One of her big gifts this year was a rocking horse. Neither Daddy nor I knew this gift was coming, so it was a nice surprise for all of us. She can’t climb on or off by herself, but she definitely loves to ride him. Now he just needs a name!
