Twas The Day Before Christmas
Here are some pictures from Saturday, mainly at my sister’s house. Sadie melted down uncharacteristically at the dinner table, and mostly wanted to climb on it and get the candles. It was frustrating for her that this was not allowed. Afterward, during a lull, she was fine. Then she was unhappy during the present opening commotion.
Immediately after dinner, my mother gave her this toy/stuffed dog. She latched on, carrying it around, giving it hugs and kisses, and so it’s in most of the pictures. Here’s when she first got it:
This is after we were home, watching TV:
Here’s Sadie with her grandmother and, of course, the dog:
This is a toy I can remember playing with when I was a kid. I’m noth sure if my mother had it with her, or if it wound up at my sister’s house somewhere along the line:
I almost forgot that I’d planned to have my nephew play piano for Sadie while we were there. The lights were out in the room with the piano, until later when some of the kids migrated in there. Ultimately we did have Marc playing for her, but initially my brother in law, Jim, grabbed Sadie and sat at the piano with her. She was fascinated, as you can see by how intently she’s watching what he’s doing.
Pictures from yesterday will be in another post(s).
