Christmas 2006 - My First Christmas

December 25, 2006

Today was my first Christmas ever. Mum and Dad had to wake me up at 7:00 AM for breakfast. Mum and Dad had toasted banana bread and coffee - I had milk (again). Aunty Natalie, Aunty Sam and Grandma were coming over for Christmas lunch so, after breakfast I had a quick power-nap before we started getting ready for the day.

At about 10:30 AM, Dad and I got dressed (I put on my special red and white striped Bonds Xmas themed jumpsuit) and set off on a walk to Maroubra Junction for some fresh bread sticks while Mum greeted Sam and Grandma (who were arriving just as we were leaving for our walk).

When Dad and I got back from the shops, I was the star attraction. After being passed around for kisses and cuddles, I decided to go down for another power-nap so I could be in good spirits for lunch. When I woke at about 12:30 PM, Aunty Natalie had arrived, and we were just about ready to eat. The lunch menus went like this:

  • Spicy Roast Pumpkin, Feta and Olive Salad
  • Warm Mediterranean Lamb Salad
  • Olive and Herb Fish Parcels
  • A delicious dessert by Aunty Sam

I had milk (again).

Christmas Lunch 2006

After lunch, it was present time. For me, present time went like this:

  • Baby GymTastics Activity Tunnel
  • Baby GymTastics Play Wall
  • Activity Table
  • Puma Kart II Sneakers (first shoes ever!)
  • Six pairs of baby socks
  • Peter Alexander Pyjamas
  • A woollen cat called Sacha (I prefer Goo-Goo)
  • But wait, there’s more…
  • Sunshade Baby Swim Seat
  • Speedos (for swimming lessons)
  • Speedo Aquanappy Trunks (for going in the pool at swimming lessons)
  • Pants and Jacket for the snow
  • Christmas decorations with my name and the year on them
  • Yoshi Jones bib
  • Assorted bath toys
  • and much more…
