There seemed to be a theme this Christmas for Streedums. We got Streed a stuffed lion in honor of the SLU Lions and Nana and Papa Crooms got him a lion chair. A friend from church even got Ella a precious little Leap Frog Lion. Aunt Jodi, Nana & Papa Crooms and Chip & I bought Thomas the Tank Engine paraphanalia. Both sides of the family bought him balls! The Crooms got Streed and Ella and AU ball, mine got him an AL one, Gran got him a basketball, soccer and football, Chip and I got him a 3' soccer goal that says "GOOOAAALLL" when you hit the net. Needless to say after he went to bed last night we cleaned out his toys and put some away for Ella.
In case you're wondering if Ella got anything...over the course of two weekends she racked up--she was just asleep during much of the opening process. She got Baby Einstein toys, books, a doll, stocking, ornament and blanket, a new play mat and diaper bag, clothes, an exersaucer and movie. Basically we decided that parents don't need to buy their young kids any gifts because they make out like bandits from the grandparents and aunts & uncles. We are very appreciative. We enjoyed spending time with all of you!
