Ava and I were both ready to start our Chirstmas shopping early on my day off today and were on the road by 8am. Unfortunately, both Toys R Us and Sears did not open until 9am. We spent the extra time mall-walking with the *white hairs* (as daddy calls them)! Everyone waved and stopped to say hi as we hung out waiting to get into Sears. I found a few items but made one purchase... for myself! By the time we got to Toys R Us, Ava was done with shopping, so I hurried and got a few gifts; at least we were able to cross two more kids off the list.
Ava seemed to be feeling better today and had a pretty good appetite and took a two hour nap. Once daddy got home, Ava checked out her stocking to see what St. Nick brought. She got a new book and two bottles for her baby. She was quite fond of the bottles!
Nanny and Grandpa Tony visited tonight and had dinner with us. I made tilapia, pasta and steamed broccoli and we had a store bought carrot cake for dessert. The cake sure wasn't anything to write home about. Guess that's for the better so I wont be forced to eat anymore of it.

Yay for Ava feeling better today. That is wonderful news. I love the photos of Ava looking through her stocking.
Glad she's feeling better today and that you were able to get some shopping done...it's hit or miss with them these days isn't it? Some days I feel like Lilly could stay at the mall for hours, others I'm lucky if we get to go to one store!!
