Today was a great Christmas Eve. Leilani strangely slept in until 11 am, which meant I got a little extra sleep too! I made snickerdoodle cookies in the afternoon to add to the gingerbread and peanut butter cookies I made yesterday. Afterwards, both of Mike's brothers came over and we enjoyed a bunch of deliciously unhealthy appetizers. Leilani woke up from her nap in a terrible mood and we spent the afternoon entertaining her and she ended up being showered with love and attention from everyone. We even gave her one of her Christmas presents early-- a big slide for the backyard (when it gets a bit warmer). But we set it up in the living room for now and she had a blast playing on it. I guess it'll have to stay in the living room until Spring.
I realized this evening that I need to take more pictures. I didn't even get my camera out all day, even though there were a ton of things I wanted to capture. I made the same mistake on Thanksgiving. Tomorrow I plan to take a bunch of photos to make up for it.
Sounds like a wonderful day! I'm guilty of not taking out my camera on holidays too. It's hard because when you're behind the camera you're not as "in the moment" as everyone else - you're just capturing it. Hope you guys had a very Merry Christmas!!!
