Early Christmas

Since we are going to be doing a LOT of travelling the week of Christmas, we decided to do our Christmas early. Chris and I stayed up until about 1:00 AM (with Libby crying in the bedroom almost the entire time because she wanted us in there) putting together her little tractor. Other than the fact that it was late, it was kind of fun. Anyway, she had seen the box, but not the tractor put together. In fact, yesterday daddy opened the box to take a look at the parts and when he shut the lid Libby started saying, "No, no, no, no, no,no..." because she knew it was a tractor. So this morning when we got her out of bed daddy asked if she was ready for her Christmas present. She looked up really quick and said, "Tractor?" She has had a blast all morning playing with that thing and setting her kitty on it so that he can drive too. At least until she gets jealous of the kitty and makes him get off so she can get on. She even bit him by the ear and took him off of her tractor. Crazy kid! That's something we'll have to put an end to. Well, we'll have more Christmas joys after the holidays, but that is our early joy.
