Even though Isabelle still doesn't understand how Christmas works and what it's all about, it was still a lot of fun at Christmas this year! Our day started off with going over to my sister's house to watch my niece and nephew open up some gifts. By 9am we were back home to meet Jeremy's brother and his wife over at our house to exchange some gifts. By 10:30, Jeremy was on the road to Wilmington, NC to pick up his mom from the airport. Isabelle and I stayed behind and Skyped my mom so she could watch Isabelle and I open some gifts from her and my dad. From an already busy morning, Isabelle was definitely ready for a nap! By the time she woke up, Jeremy was home with his mom and we did a few more gifts before heading back to my sister's for a meal and time with the family. That evening we finally finished up opening the rest of the gifts. Isabelle was absolutely exhausted from all the activities and fun of the day and crashed not long after. We had a really great day, but definitely missed our family that wasn't there :( We all got so many amazing gifts and feel so blessed. We tried to not get so wrapped up in the festivities, but remember what this time of year is all about and rejoicing in the birth of Jesus. What a wonderful day!

Mommy's Little Helper...Not Really!
Helping put the dishes away...climbs in the cabinet....thinks she's stuck and starts crying!
She got so messy during dinner I had to just take her shirt off and her hair is all over the place from me wiping food out of it!! She speeds right over to the dishwasher when we open it...I don't know what she finds so fascinating about it!
