Rayne
Yesterday we went to Rayne to visit some more family. It was a rainy yucky day, so we didn't get to play outside, which is our favorite thing to do in the country.
Sara did get to help Momo open her present though (opening presents is also a favorite thing of hers)!

And she got to admire Momo's pretty Christmas tree
 |
| From Louisiana Dec 2008- Jan 2009 |
And she played hide-and-seek with Nonna. She is getting much better at it: before she would always tell me where she was "Mommy, I'm under the table." She might be starting to understand the concept of the game

Christmas Day!!
We had a wonderful Christmas Day! Sara was a little nervous about Santa coming, but she was more than excited to see the toys that he left for her (we have a video, but I left the cord for the camcorder in Boston, so I'll have to upload that later...)
She wasn't quite sure what to think at first...

And she checked everything out calmly

And tasted them!

First you have to shake the present:

Later on, Sara opened her presents from Mommy and Daddy
 |

And we had lots of fun looking at the books!
 |
| From Christmas Eve 2008 |
We had to stop talking about Santa because Sara got a little afraid of the idea of him coming. I guess the idea of a big guy in a red suit breaking into the house was a little creepy to her... But she was happy to see her presents in the morning! More pictures to come soon :)
Hope that y'all had a very Happy Christmas and that Santa brought you everything you wanted!
