Christmas Morning

Rain Boots for Eleanor's American Girl Dolls are a must in Southeast Alaska!Oscar was thrilled to find that Santa brought him what he had asked for. Eleanor playing her new guitar from Santa.
She really wanted a kitten but Daddy said No. She is very happy with the guitar, saying that she didn't ask Santa for it b/c she didn't know whether or not he would actually bring it if she asked. We'll have to get her signed up for lessons!
Both children are taking swim lessons over Christmas Break and have improved much over the last week & a half. Oscar is diving underwater after rings and Eleanor is doing the front crawl & backstroke along the wall unassisted! Today I watched her jump off the diving board into the deep end, something she has done during school swims but I hadn't seen her do. I'm impressed, I know I could do it but wouldn't choose to do so for fun. So thankful that they are enjoying the lessons, Eleanor originally balked at going. Being a good swimmer is a must especially living on an island. Santa didn't forget Jasmine!
She got a new squeaky toy & special treats with glucosamine for her hips.
