Christmas 2006

Woke up around 8 or so to open Leah's gifts. We were fortunate enough to get Leah a couple of things we think she will enjoy. An easel, art set, clothes, books, dvds, some other random things like a digital camera. Yes Leah is now the proud owner of a digital camera. We will have to upload her first pictures soon. Better than ones I take. But most importantly Leah got the TMX Elmo that Matt got for her at regular retail price. Here she is playing with him for the first time.

So far every Christmas Eve I give Leah a present to open, a pair of pajamas to wear that night. She looks adorable in them but then again what doesn't she look adorable in!



Afterwards we left to go to Ruth & George's where tons of presents were waiting for Leah to open. Lindsay was there as well. We all got wonderful gifts and had a great time-especially watching Leah open all her presents. I found it amusing that she knew when something was clothing before even taking the gift wrap up. She would pick up the box and say "Clothes" and put the box down looking for something else to open.





Then we went to have dinner at Aunt DL's. We got to spend time with Aunt Lois, Cousins Dustin, Danny & Dave. And guess what? Leah opened MORE presents.

Afterwards off we went to my dad's in the Bronx. Lani & Kain came over as well. The kids played and of course opened their gifts as well. My dad also took some time out to show Leah how to play some traditional latino percussion instruments.




And of course we took the obligatory picture of the cousins kissing.
