We decided that Toula should get to open her present first...
She checked it our thoroughly from all angles...
and then decided to pick her favorite chew thing...
After letting Toula check out her present...
I handed out Charles' presents...
and my presents...
I got to open my presents next, and Toula enjoyed chewing on the paper and helping out...
Charles overdid it, so I had to think about which present to open next several times...
I also had to get the Swiss army knife since Charles loves using tape!
Toula loved being right in the middle of things!!
Charles always gives the best presents and surprised me with a Peter's mum planter...
He had the Square Cupboard wrap it for him, so I was really thrown off the track in guessing what was in that box!
Charles took picture after picture...
Charles took picture after picture...
of me opening this present...
(I liked having a present within a present to rip the paper off of!!)
When I saw my Mississippi snowball bracelet, I knew why he took all those pictures!

Charles finally got to open his presents from his mom...
and me and Toula. He stopped opening for a while to let Toula have some fun with the ribbons.

She decided ribbons just weren't cutting it and wanted to help him open his presents too!!
Charles finally got to finish opening his presents...
Like I said, Charles (and Toula) did a great job with my gifts...
Charles liked all his presents too...
After opening our presents and our presents from Charles' mom...
Charles decided he had gotten up entirely too early that morning and needed a rest...
Toula continued to enjoy her good fortune of having so much to chew on!!
She is just the cutest little thing!
This is our favorite picture of her on Christmas morning!
We then set up a box and Christmas paper tent for Toula to play in...
and she had the best time playing in it! She ended up knocking it down, but we re-built it and she continued to play in it until Charles decided to clean up the Christmas paper in the living room Christmas morning.
We had such a good Christmas morning!
