Christmas was crazy busy this year just like all the other years. Bella had 4 different gift opening sessions and she was a professional paper ripper by the time she was done. After each gift she would open she would say "more". She really enjoyed Christmas this year.
The first Christmas was at Grandma Bella's. Its tradition that we all gather there on Christmas Eve and when the clock strikes midnight we all open presents.

she was done with her so she decided to help Aunt Maria with hers
The next Christmas was at my parents house in South Florida, Christmas morning
checking out all her new dress up shoes, she says "pretty"
Aunt T got her a farm book complete with a barn and farm animals which Bella loved. She is so good with all her animal sounds these days
Next we celebrated Christmas with Joe's parents on the 26th. Bella opened presents from all of them and even Aunt Joan and Uncle Stan sent gifts for her to open (they are too generous!)
Aunt Joan and Uncle Stan sent her an early birthday card too which was Minnie Mouse. She loved it and said "awe minnie".
later that evening the Hernandez clan joined us and Bella got to play with her new toys and shared them with Lola
check out the cheeks on little Johnny. He is getting so big. I could only hold him for a few minutes

Bella got a picnic set from Aunt Linda and Uncle Ed
Finally the last Christmas was just the 3 of us at home. Bella got a cleaning set from Santa. He must have known that she loves following mommy around the house cleaning.
she loved her mop, broom and swifter
she loves going from room to room and trying to hold all 3 things in her hand at once and cleaning
