Merry Christmas

We know it is late, but we wanted to get a holiday post in. We've had a great holiday so far. On Christmas Eve we were lucky to have Cathy, an old friend, stop by and share with us our feast. This year we successfully cooked a Christmas goose. It was delicious.

Heidi was great. She took everything in and, again this year, knew that something exciting was happening. Though she is less and less afraid of Santa (she still calls him "scary"), she hasn't quite figured the whole story.

On Christmas morning Heidi did very well under the tree. She has been enjoying her Duplo Lego and all of the new toys with smaller pieces. She has also been modelling all of the lovely clothes she received. Thanks to all of the Santas who helped make this a great Christmas.

In the evening we visited the Allen's for a Turkey Supper. It was yet another great meal and time with 'family'. It was great to see everyone.

Again, let us take this time to wish everyone all of the of the season, a great New Year and we hope your Christmas was as great as ours.

Christa's Movie List

Labels: , ,

General Heidi Christmas List

Clothes:
We've linked to a few items that we saw at Baby Gap, but clothes in general are great gifts for Heidi. She is wearing size 2 now and if the item is seasonal like a coat we think she can wear a size 4 even. She could always use a cute dress, but everyday clothes are nice and useful.

Toys:
We are just about are running out of cages for all of the animals at our stuffie zoo, so please choose stuffed animals wisely. We are big fans of the Imaginarium brand of toys at Toys R Us. this brand seems to have nice simple wooden toys with lots of imaginative uses. Heidi seems to enjoy drawing, and playing with blocks; she is figuring out simple puzzles, dances and sings with music and loves being active. We are trying to keep clear of large toys and really branded toys like Elmos, Bratz and Doras. We've thought about things like magna-doodle, blocks, and wooden train sets. She already has a big can of Duplo Lego coming her way.

Other:
Heidi has really enjoyed reading books and having books read to her. Often, her favourites involve animals. The Bombay Company sells mahogany steps for short people to climb into a tall bed and Heidi is just such a person.

Clothes for Heidi

Here are some jackets we tried on at the Gap:
We tried on the coats in both size 2 and 4. Both sizes fit. The later size will of course last longer.
