After 10 hours of driving we finally made it to Grandma Judy's at 4:30AM Christmas Eve morning!
Aunt Melanie couldn't wait to cuddle with Madeline :-)
Later that morning Madeline showed everyone how she could stand up without any help from Dad!
Great Grandma Deutsch came over and she got her two books and some Christmas ornaments :)
That evening we all got together and opened Christmas Presents -
it was sooo fun! Everyone got something
(but we think Madeline took in the biggest pile of presents).
Aunt (Godmother) Alyssa gave her a Xavier hat and a new t-shirt.
Aunt Melanie got her a Vikings dinnerware set!
After we opened some of our gifts it was time to go to church. Madeline slept through most of it - we think all of the beautiful singing helped her sleep :-)
Everyone went to bed when we got home, so that Santa could come while we were sleeping. It's almost Christmas!!!
