Daphne had the first of four Christmas celebrations today. Since we are leaving tomorrow for Oklahoma, we decided to open gifts with my mom and step-dad today. Daphne got a new baby doll:

Her old one was fine, but I liked the clothing/accessories that came with this doll. Plus it is completely machine washable. Surface clean only toys suck, well, for babies at least. And yes, Daphne is wearing a Christmas t-shirt, jean shorts and Hello Kitty slippers. Bold fashion choices.

Besides books, music, a doll highchair and tub toys, she also got a stuffed rocking pony from my parents. It’s really cute. Daphne is afraid of it. Ginger and Abby (the dogs) got Daphne a DVD:

And she even got to see Santa as he drove through the neighborhood:

Mommy got some pretty cool things too- a Tracy Joy camera bag (with the pink Robert Kaufman Hot Couturier fabric flap). A really cool scarf from my mom (made by Etsy seller yoknits) and a few pendants from Waxing Poetic. I’m such a lucky girl!!

Oh, and by the way… guess who is sick? Yep, it just wouldn’t be a holiday road trip with Daphne without her running a fever. ARGHH!!! We have changed our plans and decided since it’s going to be so freaking cold tomorrow night in OK, that we will leave after lunch tomorrow instead of trying to drive overnight. I hope Daphne is in a good mood.
