Maddie's 2nd Christmas was, well, hot. It was in the low 80's with "feels like" temps in the upper 80's! Ugh. It's kinda hard to get into the spirit with sweaty armpits. That aside, it was great! We spoiled her a bit this year...not in quantity but quality. We got her a bike, swingset and a hand-held game/educational device. I did find the latter second-hand so we were able to stay within budget while giving her what she wanted (although she kept telling any Santa that had her on his lap that she wanted a bike AND a scooter...). I struggle with wanting to fulfill her requests to Santa while teaching her she can't have everything her heart desires as well as trying to emphasize the real meaning of Christmas. Hopefully we'll find a good balance as she gets older.
I almost failed to mention Pete! Yaya introduced Maddie to Pete the Cat...he is a soulful cat that sings songs about everything being "all good". It's funny. She loves him!
Tinkerbell costume in place, it was time to swing and slide! I have afeeling this will be a great investment. She has loved playgrounds since she was a tiny baby!
