'Twas the night before Christmas .... and we all went waaay overboard this year.
It's almost as though my husband, stepdaughter and i went out of our way to get just about every hot toy on about 15 different "top ten holiday gifts" list, all to give Alex an amazing Christmas she will most likely forget.. lol!
I got her a Leap Pad-2 (to get my own iPad away from her for good) ...
Daddy got her a motorized pink Barbie Jeep (Alex is not even into Barbie ... but it's SUCH a cool jeep!)
My stepdaughter got Alex an artist's easel -- it's 3 times bigger than she is.
Those were Alex big ticket items, amid the puzzles, princess accessories, and kid movies..
And Alex would've claimed the most popular Doc McStuffins doll if it weren't sold out, EV-ER-EE-WHERE.
Why, we went all out for a 2-and-1/2-year-old is beyond me...
-- except that she gets SO excited when she sees Christmas lights blinking at house after house after the sun goes down...
-- And she demands we play Christmas music in the car as she declares every song is about the baby Jesus (except for Rudolph and Frosty The Snowman, of course)
-- And she marches around the house with a pen and notepad, making her own "naughty and nice" list...
On second thought -- WE are so excited to see HER so excited tomorrow morning, because she actually GETS the concept of Christmas this year!!
Hm.
Wonder whose toy she'll like the best.... lol :)
