Christmas Day 2009

It was a very exciting day for Brea. Since we normally don't go into the living room in the morning, we were able to hide the tree and presents for a little while while Daddy caught a snooze after a rough night with Brea. However, when Craig and I went into the kitchen to get some breakfast stuff ready we heard a little voice exclaim: "Oooo!" from the living room and that was it. NOTHING was going to keep her from the tree. Here's a video of our little girl rearing to go. I was getting the camera ready then Craig put her her down and she was off like a shot!

Christmas morning

Here Brea is investigating a box of goodies from Uncle Kent, Auntie Signe, and her cousins - but then some funny noises started coming out from the box and she wasn't so sure...

Finally, in the evening, Brea's Po-Po and Uncles Ambrose and Eugene came for dinner... they brought more gifts, of course, and here's Brea enjoying some air popping ball fun - apologies for the dark lighting:

It was such a busy day for our little girl and she was spoiled as spoiled could be. She handled herself so well though and we are so proud of her.

Some fun acrobatics with Daddy

More presents for me?

I love it when my uncles play with me!

Pretty pose with Po-Po

Brea likes to help with everyone's presents!

She even has to instruct on how to open her presents.

Who's hiding behind the box?! Gotta climb up for a better look!

Finally getting tuckered out
