Christmas 2007

Anneke loved Christmas this year. It was the first year she actually understood what she was in for and was looking forward to it. Her biggest hit presents were the tea set from Grandma and Grandpa Spoelma (at the behest of Mom) and the doll house from Nana and Pop (ditto).

It was sad with Anneke how we seemingly had to force her to keep coming back for more presents when she was trying to go off and play with what she'd already opened. It was as if to say: "Stop gratefully enjoying what you already have and come back for more STUFF!"

One of the most hilarious anecdotes was how Anneke ran into Claire's room to wake her. She jumped on her bed, pointed at Claire, and matter of factly stated: "Christmas. Get up. Christmas. Get up. Come with me."

Jonah just mostly got clothes and a couple chew toys but he also got a very cool train from G&G Spoelma he'll be enjoying a bit later.
