Siemens Family Christmas

Sitting on Grandma's lap to look at pictures of herself
Daddy helped Kalia open her present from Auntie Kaitlyn, because she was getting very tired and a bit cranky (nap time) it was a HUGE stuffed puppy, bigger than Kalia and she just loved it.



Whenever we play games Kalia wants to join in the action and be a part of it too! Usually she ends up messing the board though.

Uncle Todd helping Kalia figure out that she can build a tower on top of the box, too!

What a big girl coloring at her new desk!

Opening another one of her BIG presents - she's getting to be a pro.


Building a tower with the blocks that Uncle Adrian and Uncle Todd gave her with Adrian helping (though he stopped as soon as the camera came out!)

Kalia giving Grandma and Grandpa their Shutterfly album

Christmas Day was another day filled with family and fun. After going to church in the morning for a beautiful service, we spent the day with Scott's family playing lots of games and eating even more food!! There were also (of course) a ton of gifts to unwrap, especially for Kalia. It's really fun seeing how she interacts with a household of boys and is always trying to get their attention. My most fun gift to give was the Shutterfly album that I had made up for Kalia to give both sets of grandparents. And the most exciting gift that I got from Scott's parents was a Kitchen Aid mixer!!! I wish I had more pictures but there was so much action going on, and I know that not everyone in the family is crazy about having their pictures taken so I just had to sneak in a few here and there. Isn't it great to be blessed with loving families?

Kalia...you do look so grown up "painting" all by yourself on your new easel...budding artist! I like the picture of you and your grandma.

Definitely love the artist-in-action shot. Sometimes those camera-shy people (Chris, Kait are you there?!) just can't handle the publicity. Oh well, post more pictures of Kalia instead. How bad can that be? :) Love checking your blog.

Great Orlando Auntie
