the awesomeness continues. penny was honestly perfect this whole holiday. holidays are exhausting for everyone... especially for people with huge loud families... but penny was great. she was soo much better than last year. she did great with everyone (still pretty indepent - not really into being held much) but was a happy happy girl. stayed up late all weekend with out any crabbiness and went to bed like a champ and slept liek one too. she didnt get to sleep last night until after 10:30. slept until 9:30 am and is now past hour three of her nap.
did i mention i love that kid?
christmas was amazing. we slept in til about 8 then woke up and did christmas with out little family... gave penny her presents and played with them for a bit before getting ready to go to gma and gpa d's hosue with mommy's brothers and sisters.
penelope loved her kitchen and her new race car track. she "cooked" me a hamburger in the ktichen (by using the refridgerator and coffee pot but i'm not judging). then we had a quick little breakfast (for real) using our new brobee plate and silverware.
when we got to grandpa and grandmas first step was obviously seeing the baby calvin then on to presents!!! penny has some awesome family cuz she got some pretty great presents... a fantastic dollhouse from gma and gpa and tons of "rooms" for it from everyone... she especially loves all the baby stuff for the doll house and the car that has carseats for the babies and comes with a doggie. she alos LOVES her yo gabba gabba boom box from uncle jeff and aunt christa and danced like crazy with it and really looking forward to playing iwth her new finger paints from uncle kevin, aunt lisa and baby calvin on her new easel.
i think the favorite presents that were given this year hd to be the bikes from gma and gpa d to ride together. we made them promise to call us when they hit that trail for the first itme so we can witness this in person :)
after lots of fun with mommy's family it was off to great gma ls for more christmas partying! (penny started saying "party" really excited this weekend every time we put her in the car).
she had a great time at great gmas playing with her cousin ava and then having a dance party in teh sunroom. with coutnry music blaring penny joined in the dancing fun for a solid hour of cxraziness (already well past bedtime). she kept running in to get daddy then grabbed him by the hand and brought him in to dance with her. adorable.
we finally headed home around 10:30 and called it a night. i think penny had a little left her in but mommy and daddy had to be the party poopers.
christmas came so fast this year it's hard to believe it's all over already... but it was pretty fantastic.
we had so much fun with all the friends and family and thanks to everyone who made this christmas so memorable for penelope!
love you all and merry christmas!!!!
