The baby got seriously spoilt this year.
She slept maybe five hours over ten hours on Christmas Eva - the husband woke me up an hour before we were due at my parents house and it felt like I'd hardly slept at all. Of course, we had enough time to pull out the camera to capture her first Christmas morning - waking up in her cot to see her Santa sack, looking at the contents of it one by one on our bed, the baby got her presents from us, she gave us presents from her, then the husband and I swapped our own gifts.
And I captured a photo of her on her fathers lap, surrounded by presents, and realised that perhaps I had gone a liiiiiiiiiiittle bit overboard.
Santa gave her a CD of songs to dance to, Sophie the giraffe, two harnesses to secure Sophie to her hand so that she isn't on the floor all the time, a Tupperware Shape-O, some Cat in the Hat bookends, a chime garden toy, a teething bee toy, a cheese sorting toy, and a toy to stick to her highchair to keep her entertained a little longer.
We gave her a Fisher Price Laugh and Learn Learning Table, a flip out sofa seat (with numbers and letters on it) and 'If Kisses were Colours' (which I thought was lovely).
She was then spoilt by both sets of grandparents and her four sets of aunties and uncles. She got books, plates, bath toys, a ball popper, a shopping trolley toy, clothes, a handprint kit..... so much stuff!
She started to get the hang of unwrapping gifts in the morning, but then every time it was time for her to open gifts she was napping.
Then, the greatest gift of all, a sleep from midnight until 8.30am with only one resettling required, then another two hours sleep for me!
