Saturday we had a Goode time in Sunbury visiting with B, Joanne, and the Goode clan!! Not all of our family could make it to dinner because of a nasty stomach bug, but we were thinking of them and wishing them well.
On Christmas Eve we celebrated here at our house with Mammaw and Pappy. We made a 15 lb turkey, stuffing, corn, and mashed potatoes. We had planned to go to our Christmas Eve service at our church (and we were supposed to do a reading) but couldn't get the cars out of the driveway! Mammaw even slid into the flower box and messed up her back bumper.
So, instead we stayed home and opened the gifts that Santa brought. Her favorite? A bicycle.
Then Christmas morning we all got up at our normal time, 8:00. Emelia squealed as she rushed down the hall to see what Santa brought! She got lots of books, some Barbies, a few games to play, M&M's, and a Big Girl Bed!
While she was taking her first "snooze" in her BGB (big girl bed) Gram and Grumps arrived. Okay, so Eme calls them Grammie and Gampaw, but Gram and Grumps just sounds so much cooler! haha
We had leftovers for lunch and hung out for a bit. Eme woke up and we opened the gifts they brought along.
After they headed back to Delaware, we visited Mammaw and Pappy. While we were there, I heard Eme yell for me. She said, "Mommy! I pooped! Come here!"... oh no... I went running (as fast as a waddling pregnant lady can run) but didn't see her. Here, she went to the potty, pulled her own pants down, did her business, and was yelling for me to help her wipe and to give her M&M's (her treat for going potty). I am SO very proud!!
There were several people, friends and family alike, that told us we would never have her potty trained by Christmas. Welp, today proves them wrong. She's a big girl. A smart girl. And not my little baby anymore...
And with that... Merry Christmas everyone! We hope you had a great time with your loved ones.
