Christmas 2014

We spent most of Christmas waiting for Mary Revel to arrive.  My due date was Christmas Eve, and since Nora was two weeks early, I was certain that Mary Revel would be here in plenty of time for Christmas.  Boy was I wrong.  So when Christmas Eve came and went, we just kept waiting and waiting.  Because Mary Revel could come at any minute, we had a low key Christmas at home.  Shugie and Bill drove up on Christmas morning and got here before Nora even woke up (we actually had to wake her up after 8:00, which never happens!).  We didn't take many pictures, but did snap a few of Nora on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

In her Christmas pjs (MR has a matching set that I almost put on Nora's baby doll.  Also please excuse the pink - non-matching - baby bow.  She insisted on wearing it and it wasn't worth the fight.)

Putting out cookies she decorated and milk for Santa

The best we could do for a picture in front of the tree

Christmas morning:


Running in to see if Santa came


Santa came!  (This looks like way more than it was.  The doll and bassinet were mine as a child.  We were going to stop there but Nora kept saying that Santa was bringing her a pink wagon, so we made a last minute decision to add that to the mix.)

Not the best picture, but I had to have one of N in her favorite gift - a complete Princess Sofia get up - sitting in her pink wagon.  We hadn't even finished opening gifts at this point!
