Day After Christmas

Kelly's mom came down from Dallas and we had our third Christmas unwrapping the day after Christmas. Below you can see some crazy silver pants Kelly's mom got for Addison to match her silver shoes she already had.
Addison also received a set of Mickey Mouse ears from her Uncle Danny and Aunt Marquetta. She did not take to them right away, and got angry when we wore them. We had to ease her into them, since Addison is sometimes fussy about wearing ha
Below is Addison playing with a pretend makeup kit that Kelly's Mom got her. I have declared that she can not use the real thing until she is at least 30.
Kelly's brother John gave Addison a toy school bus that had passengers you can arrange in the seats. It also makes noises when you push down on the driver of the bus. Addison had a great time with it and would push it around in front of her like it was a shopping cart. This was funny to watch since she was really hunched over the whole time.
Kara's gifts were quickly interpreted by Addison as being her gifts. We had to explain the concept of sharing to Addison, which was not popular right away. Most of the time Kara would play with something only to have Addison declare it to be "her toy". Then Kara would find that toy snatched from her hands by Addison. Explaining the sharing concept to Addison helped, although she would still resort back to the "mine" phrase from time to time. This started off with a small keyboard that lit up and played music when you touched it as seen below. This was a gift from Kelly's mom. You can see the "sharing" going on already.
