Christmas 2008

Christmas was a blast with Kyra the 22-month-old! Kyra now knows that Santa is a pretty cool dude (and thank goodness we have a bigger house to accomodate all of Santa's generosity). Tearing the paper to shreds seemed to be the highlight of opening gifts, which was much better than last year when eating the paper was the highligh of opening gifts! Kyra seemed to take it in stride when, a week after Christmas, every bit of the Christmas decorations were packed away while she slept. She bolted to the living room, stared at the corner where the tree formerly camped, shrugged her shoulders, turned her tiny palms upward and stated, "Christmas all gone, Mommy." It's like she knows her birthday is right around the corner!
