The Owings Family

Mostly musings about my family with some religious and law-related postings here and there.

Christmas Morning

Saturday, December 27, 2008

I think that Christmas morning is more fun for me as an adult watching my children open their presents. Shea was a lot of fun this year, and had a great time opening gifts. Her big gift was her Bitty Baby doll and accessories for it. She also got some practical items disguised as gifts such as pajamas, clothes, blankets, etc. We didn't have anywhere for her to sleep when we had company, and now her princess sofa that folds into a bed will be great for that. Nash got a push walker, basketball hoop, and some teething toys. Jon got his big Christmas gift back in November, but I made sure he had some little things under the tree. I got him some Starbuck's peppermint mocha frappaccinos, socks, undershirts, and a Homer Simpson ornament.




Shea enjoyed reading to her doll, and Nash loved his push walker.



Jon surprised me with a new camera! I LOVE to take pictures,
and I'm really going to enjoy learning how to use my camera!
Shea named her baby doll Katie, and she had a great time feeding her. Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa for Katie's high chair!
This little girls loves to change diapers. If only she could do the real thing! :)

Now, Shea can sing along to Rock Band with her own microphone!
Jon was very excited about his Christmas ornament.
Nash-ee-boo playing with his new rattle.

My mom always made breakfast cake for us on Christmas morning. We actually make it the night before, let the dough rise overnight, and stick it in the oven on Christmas morning. I couldn't find my recipe this year, so I was calling Mom about 11pm or midnight Christmas Eve to get it. No worries, I knew that she was still up wrapping presents too. I apparently called about 30 minutes after my brother had called for the same recipe.

Shea insisted on putting on her Ariel pajamas and princess house shoes that she got for Christmas.

Nash enjoyed chewing on his new toys.

Jon was excited about the USC polo his parents sent for him.
