Viv's First (and nearly giftless) Christmas

Vivi had her first Christmas! Though she didn't get many gifts, she seemed to thoroughly enjoy herself.

The festivities started at the Page family Christmas party the weekend before Christmas:



Viv and Mommy waiting for Santa


Viv on Santa's lap (no tears!!! I think she may have even enjoyed it)


Viv opening the first present of her first Christmas (two teething toys and a romper)


Another shot of her opening said present


We all spent Christmas Eve and Nana's house (G-ma Phyllis):



Viv got a talking/singing frog (LeapFrog) from her Crandall cousins. She adores it. Evertime it turns on she starts dancing and kicking. Despite the really annoying song "Happy Hands," Mommy and Daddy think it's a fabulous toy, too.


Nana gave Vivi this snowsuit and a fabulous Ralph Lauren summer dress that we can't wait for her to wear!!!


Vivi's cousin Logan really loved the Lego's that Viv picked out for him


By the end of the night Viv was verging on meltdown and was more-than-ready to go to sleep and dream of sugarplum fairies and Santa Claus


We slept at and spent Christmas Day at Pop and Grandma Nancy's:



Viv opening presents on Christmas morning


Viv and her new toy (one of two non-clothing gifts from Mommy and Daddy)


Here's what Vivi thought of the clothes Mommy and Daddy gave her ("What! Where are the toys?")


Rob and I did well for ourselves this Christmas. Rob got this cool A's hat and a bunch of clothes for work (which he desperately needed) and I got a new laptop and a J.Crew shopping spree!


Here are Viv and Pop showing off her new fabulous princess dress (it's from Pop and G-ma Nancy)


Here is Viv with her adorable stocking Grandma Nancy got for her (it has her name at the top)


G-ma Nancy and Pop also gave Viv a super soft Teddy bear (half of which is shown in this picture).

Viv still loves her Teddy Bear and toys, but still shows no interest in the clothing. It seems that while Grandma Nancy, Pop and Nana all win big for their fabulous gifts, Viv is keeping her finger crossed that Mom/Dad/Santa step up next year.
