Christmas

Uncle Travis and Auntie Ann came over for Christmas Eve and we played The Night Before Christmas game and the kids opened their pajamas.

 

Madison, Zachary, Ryleigh, Brynley and Bailey

Bailey came down with a head cold and fever the day before Christmas Eve and didn't do much but watch Curious George on the couch and sleep so I am surprised we got her to smile in this picture.

 

 Christmas morning the girls found Santa had brought them bikes!

 

Ryleigh got a plasma car or as she calls it, a wiggle bike

and Bailey got a "big bike."

After she got off her bike, she wanted nothing to do with her other presents because she still didn't feel well.  So she headed to the family room to watch Curious George while the rest of us opened our presents.

 Ryleigh on the other hand, was very excited to open gifts.

 

I apparently didn't get hardly any pictures opening gifts since I was dealing with a little sick one in the other room.

 

Later that morning, Ryleigh brought Bailey her gifts one by one and helped her open them.  I don't think she actually played with any of them until Sunday afternoon when she started feeling better.  We ended up taking her to the doctor Friday afternoon and she had a double ear infection. 

 
Christmas afternoon we headed over to Uncle Travis and Auntie Ann's for a yummy ham dinner and some fun with the Wii that Zach got from Santa.

 Ryleigh with her pile of gifts.  I think there are a few behind her bulletin board that you can't see.

 

I wanted to take the tree down on Friday but still hadn't taken Bailey's picture.  You can tell she was so excited about me making her sit there, not feeling well, while I took her picture.
