10 Days Away!! Hooray!

I am so excited for Christmas this year!! I am not really a holiday fanatic, but I still enjoy the holidays and being with family, and well, presents and turkey of course! Last Christmas Alexis was sick. Her first Christmas wasn't the most enjoyable, and well, she didn't really understand what was going on anyways, at 5 months old.
And although this year, she still doesn't really understand the whole opening presents idea, I'm sure by the end of it, she will get the hang of it!




It's only 10 days away now! I am almost ready for it too! I finally went and got some stocking stuffers today and think I might need a few more things. All her presents are ready for her from me and Matt, all put together and ready to be wrapped! I'm glad that I put them altogether. They took me forever to do it. I couldn't imagine how hard it would be, to do it all when she was around, trying to get it out of the boxes herself, knowing how she was when our friend James came over to give her a Christmas present (A leap frog dog),and I couldn't get it out of the box fast enough...lol


From me, she is getting her First Dollhouse, a little train set, a new baby stroller, which I'm thinking looks a little too small, but I'm not sure and some clothes! I picked out her present from Matt, which I am super excited for! It's a little nursery for her doll. It's all attached together and it has a little crib, kitchen, bathtub and some shelves. It's adorable, and I know she will love it, because she is so into her dolly and strolling her around the house and stuff! She might not understand the whole idea of it yet, but she will!
Joe came over tonight and gave her her Christmas present! She got a Princess Pillow and Blanket! Super cute and she loved the pillow! lol


Alexis has been sick for the last week. I feel like she has been sick for the last 2 months on and off and this cold is just horrible. Cough and everything. Snotty nose like never before. I hate winter. Tis the season, I suppose. But really, this whole cold thing sucks. A lot. Alexis hasn't been sleeping at all lately. Up crying a lot of the night and I have a cold also, so it's been a not-so-fun week. Hopefully we will both be feeling better soon though. I'm just hoping she is better by Christmas though, so this year is better than last. But I'm sure by 10 days from now, she will be feeling better!!
