A quick report from Day 4 of our Christmas celebrations! We've had an awesome time watching Christmas unfold through Millie's eyes. The Steinbeiss gang was all here for a week...we hit the beach a few times, took turns making big dinners for each other, watched The Polar Express no fewer than three times, and had a great Christmas day opening gifts and brunching at the Hotel Del Coronado. It took all day for Mils to open her gifts and we even saved a few for her to open the following day! She and Simon were really blessed with lots of thoughtful, loving gifts.
We joined the Greer family via webcam for the traditional reading of Luke 2 and 'Twas the Night Before Christmas last night and again today for the exchange of gifts. Lots more wonderful presents and catching up on each others' holidays. If we can't be together, Skype is a pretty good alternative. Millie and her cousin Kaitlin both stood in front of the cameras and showed each other their new, matching dolls. So cute!
The Greer Uncles tell us to expect more fun items to arrive in the mail over the next few days. Whoa. Millie's going to think she needs to open a present for her day to be complete. It's looking like we could make this Christmas stretch a full eight days! Now the storing and re-arranging of toys begins. What a fun dilemma to solve.
