December Mania Part VI: Christmas Day

We woke up ready to continue the Christmas festivities, and all of us were spoiled rotten. One of the highlights is our new copy of Shrek 4: The Final Chapter. It's a fantastic movie which is good because Bella requests to watch it EVERYDAY. Of course we don't let her watch it every time she asks but we have seen it quite a few times at this point. In addition, Bella got a new shopping cart.












Eric and I bought Robert and Molly Krause's new cookbook and she LOVED it.













Monster Bella attacking presents













And my amazing husband struck gold again with getting me a Kindle. I LOVE it.













After Presents and breakfast we heading out to go visit one of the Neuteboom's life long friends Shelly and Family. They have lived next door to each other for many years and Shelly has a daughter about Eric's age named Laura. The best part is that Laura has a daughter only a few months older than Bella named Tatum, and Bella was sooo excited to go play with Tatum.

New Mothers with their girls.















Bella's favorite part might have been playing with their dog Callie, She played catch with her for quite some time.





















Tatum and Bella were too cute.






































In the evening we headed over to the Wells house for Christmas Dinner. Bella finally got to hold Baby Paul again (her BFF) which is one of her favorite things to do. I love how careful and protective she is with him. It's soooo cute.






















































What an amazing Christmas. Sadly, we had to leave the next day but we had a great drive home and it was nice to have another week off before getting back to school. Bella and I went swimming, played with friends, and ran lots of errands.

Even with Christmas behind us we still had one more Christmas to go.......
