Christmas Joy

The arrival of December 1st meant that Maelyn could open the first door of her advent calendar. Although I have a few interesting ideas for advent calendars as she gets older, this year I kept it simple. I got her a Toy Story chocolate calendar and was excited to introduce another tradition to Maelyn.

Trying to figure out what it is....

Opening up the first door....

 Mmmmmm.....chocolate!!!!

And then she found out that she could only open one door at a time...







.....sweet Christmas memories!! :)

oh my gosh, that's priceless. Yeah, I guess the 2 year old doesn't really get the one day at a time thing. ;-)

Maelyn, my sweet thing, I hate to laugh but oh you are too funny. (And you just made my (and Lianne's) mother howl with laughter.

this is a tough lesson to learn at a young age --- having to limit chocolate. playing the game is hard sometimes.

does she have the bonus calendar that takes you past Christmas --- that's something to look forward to -- Julia has figured that one out. 6 in one day is what she's counting on after Christmas.
