She also has been talking about Baby Geegus for weeks. I think she learned about Baby Jesus by reading stories with her dad, but she LOVES to play with baby Jesus from her nativity and mine. He nursery teacher also said she was the first to say Baby Jesus in class--even though she is the youngest. Not gonna brag, but my kid might be a genius:) Maybe not though because she DID get an Avatar toy in her Happy Meal the other day that was a blue alien looking guy and she calls HIM baby Jesus too. So I guess we better not enroll her in college quite yet:)
WELLLLL Christmas (and Hanakkah) is finally over and now the cleaning has begun. WHAT a MESS!!! But we did have a good time while it lasted. First we headed to Kevin and Marilee's for the first round of Christmas Eve. Emersyn played and played and then napped through much of the party--but when she woke up we had a few minutes to open a couple presents before heading to party number 2. Trevis wanted to give Emersyn the noisiest present he could, so he got Em a drum-set. She is a natural. She sat right down and drummed. She loves the cymbal the most:)
Next we headed to Grandma June's house. Emersyn LOVED my Cousin Austin and really wanted nothing to do with anybody else. We had a good time and Emersyn had a great time unwrapping everyone's presents.
Christmas morning was fun fun fun. I did not expect Emersyn to enjoy presents or really understand--but I was wrong. She LOVED it. She got an Elmo table from Santa. She ran out saw it and screamed and danced around screaming Melmo Melmo Melmo!!!
She also got some new colors and coloring books and thought she could quit opening any other presents and color. What an easy to please kid huh?? Why did we spend so much on presents???:)
She opens presents like her mom---RIP RIP RIP!!!!
She got too much stuff to name, but some of the things I can remember are: boots, shoes, books, an Elmo story reader, a doll, jammies, lots of Elmo stuff....the list goes on.
After presents we headed to Ryan and Jenny's for our family Christmas. Emersyn tried out all of Creete's toys and ran away from the puppy. She has always hated their big dog Chief, but now she also hates their new puppy LuLu too.
Emersyn had a Santa hat on too, but managed to escape too quick for me to get a picture---but Santa Creete and Santa Papa are pretty cute.
Grandma June was cold and so everyone kept bringing her blankets. We finally got her warm, but she looked a bit like a coat rack.
Emersyn and baby "cheer girl."
Once again coloring stole the day. Creete and Emersyn sat and colored for almost an hour---all of their new expensive toys and they only wanted to color--Go Figure!!!
After Jen's we headed back to Kevin and Marilee's to hang out with Ward and Grandma Doris. I think I was too tired to take pictures because somehow I managed not too---so unlike me. She had a great time passing out all of the gifts and jumping on all of the big boxes. She also got a motorized hotwheel and treked around the house. I will have to catch a picture of that and post it cause she is stinkin cute on it. Yesterday Todd's dad came over and Emersyn had yet another Christmas. She is gonna get used to having more presents every day if we don't stop soon.
We have been very blessed this Christmas and enjoyed WAY too much good food. Tomorrow begins the dieting, the cleaning, and the huge chore of putting all of the gifts away. All I REALLY wanna do though is read my new Sarah Palin book:)

too funny that she LOVED austin cuz Gracee is freaked out by him. Also hurry up and read the sarah palin book cuz I asked for it and did not get it, so I am next (even though I know Amy is DYING to read it).
How fun! I think Emersyn is a genius and I always tell Josh, "Well Emersyn is doing it and/or saying it. Why isn't Max?" My kid can scream pretty good though. What do you think about that? :) Glad you had a good Christmas/Hannakah.
