My family came over around lunchtime on Christmas day for another round of present opening. Addison had been getting over a fever for a few days, and although her fever broke she still had a sore throat. We set up in the living room, and Aunt Stephanie was a big help in keeping Addison from getting too fussy. Below is a picture of Aunt Stephanie holding Kara before Addsion became jealous.
Addison opened the largest package first, which was a toy train set that could go around the tree. It runs on batteries(which my parents included), makes train noises, plays music, and even came with a remote control(which is awesome). After several attempts to move on to other presents, we had to set the train up since Addison was so infatuated with it.
Addison also received a personalized tv tray from my parents that she can use either on the floor, or while laying down on the couch. She has already used it as a coloring platform and to store her colored pencils.
My parents also gave Kara a suitcase so she can have her own stylish luggage for trips.
Addison also received an easel from my folks that has a side you can write on with chalk and a white eraser board side. It came with chalk and letters that would stick to the eraser board side.
Here is a quick movie of Addison playing with her easel:

I also received a griddle from my parents, that works really well for cooking a lot of bacon at one time. It also cooks pancakes very quickly.
This little guy below was supposed to be part of a bathtub kit for the girls, however, we ended up having a lot of fun playing with him as a and puppet. This was from my Aunt Mickey and Uncle Hector.
Our girls both love Mickey Mouse, and they received a nice book with some good activities in it. This was also from my Aunt Mickey and Uncle Hector. Kelly is modeling this one for us.
