Christmas Morning 2007

Early Morning Traditions

Mom always had us open our stockings over breakfast and this was a tradition we wanted to continue with our family. We also had the traditional Christmas Morning breakfast which consists of freshly baked cinnamon rolls and coffee. Whenever I smell these baking it reminds me of Christmas.

Christmas Stockings Hanging Over the Fireplace. We had several guests stay over this Christmas, Uncle Philip and Aunt Neshma, so they got a stocking as well.

Deirdre tearing through her stocking. She got pretty headbands and necklaces which she insisted on wearing as soon as she opened them.

Sister with her "Baby's First Christmas Stocking." She slept through all of the "Christmas Morning" events. I guess it didn't really matter that the girls had on matching pj's, Lorien was never up enough to capture it.

Deirdre opening up her presents from Mommy and Papa. She opened Lorien's as well and even understood the idea that they weren't for her. After she opened each gift meant for Lorien, she would stack the presents all over a sleeping sister in her swing.

Deirdre watching Aunt Rachael opening up her presents. Nathan was actually responsible for this one, he picked out some choice Origins products for her.
