Emmie's first present

Since we're going to be in California for Christmas, we decided that Emmie would get to open her present from us before we left. We didn't want the airport security guy to have all the fun unwrapping it, so here we go:



Emmie began with some tentative pokes and grabs at the paper, but then her instinctive present-opening reflex kicked in, and she had the present unwrapped in no time! I suppose it helped that a certain Mommy kindly moved the ribbon out of the way...




While Emmie has the unwrapping skill down, she has yet to master the "throw the paper to the side so you can get straight to the toy" skill down yet. She got a bit tripped up on the wrapping paper, but then again when you're her age I suppose the paper is half the fun ;)


We hope all of you have a great Christmas, wherever you are!
