Hid Did Came!
Lauren had been misbehaving on Christmas Eve Day, and actually went to bed wondering if Santa would even come, or if maybe he'd come but leave coal in her stocking.... But as she came out of her room on Christmas morning, she announced excitedly that 'he did came!' The best however, was when she looked around, saw what Santa had delivered and said 'I thought I were gonna get coal in my stocking but I didn't. I think I were good!'
Lauren opened all her gifts in record time, and here she tries on some of her new dress-up clothes. She has been enjoying playing will all of Cole's gifts too.
Cole was really excited too - Santa brought him a Spiderman bigwheel, and a big cuddly Elmo. He kept saying 'Santa, Santa!' and also enjoyed the Frosty the Snowman 'choo-choo' (aka train) that Santa brought and placed around the tree. He loves everything and anything Frosty.
Merry Christmas!

Cookie Exchange
Lauren requested chocolate cookies for her school cookie exchange this evening. I used my favorite chocolate cookie recipe, and substituted M&Ms for the chocolate chunks, for a little holiday flair. Looking forward to hearing the kids' Christmas carols - they've been practicing a lot. The best is Lauren's interpretation of 'The Twelve Days of Christmas' - including the 'two turtle ducks' that 'my tulip came to me'.
