Thank you to Brie for our awesome books and toys! We got the first one hundred words book, hippos go berserk, and b plan squishy alphabet blocks. They love it all, thank you!!
Thanks JRo!!! DD was so excited to get her gift. JRO got her Daniel Tiger figurines, and a trolley. DD loves that the trolley has a bell.
I told her to say "cheese", But she was so excited she could not even look at the camera
Yay! I'm so glad she likes them. I love her face in the first picture
The first pic is her "cheese" face. It is so funny. She was so excited, when I told her there was a present for her. I had to tell her to wait so I could get a pic.
DD got her gifts from redheadk yesterday! Thank you so much!
We got a "my first workbench" with a hammer and pegs, a set of those awesome tactile board flash cards, and a gorgeous wooden alphabet abacus.
The bench is already a huge hit and she's been carrying the hammer around nonstop since the moment it came out of the box. I'm saving the flash cards to introduce on our upcoming flight - I know she'll love them, she LOVES board books that have things to touch. And I know the abacus is something she will grow in to but they have one at the barre studio child care and she is always playing with it there so it's great to have one at home. She digs smacking the tiles and making them spin. I know it will be enjoyed for years to come.
After a returned package and far too sweet of an effort on chickens987 part, Caramini got her gift today! She LOOOOVED it and LOOOOOVED getting mail. We already had to play magnetic chess and Spot It! She is also begging to take a bath with her bath bomb! This package was too much! SO generous!!!!
Thank you @bunnybean for the gifts for DS! Everything made it into his mouth at some point last night lol. He particularly liked the fuzzy photo album - he kept rubbing it on his face.
Thank you, leonard131, for the great Hanukkah book and a gift certificate to one of our favorite local bookstores! DD was thrilled to have her own package to open and I am sure she will love picking out a few new books for herself

I hate to break it to everyone, but DD is officially the luckiest SS recipient of the board. That's because swizz had her, so she got an amazingly cute bow from Cora's Cuties She also got a Baby Stella and the Llama Llama Jingle Bells book. DD loved them all!
Thanks so much, swizz! I have to admit - a while ago, in one of the SS posts, you mentioned that you knew what you were getting your SS. My first thought was "I hope she has me, and I hope she's sending a bow!"
lulu21, thank you so very much for the awesome gifts for my DD! You are the best Santa ever -- both gifts are huge hits and absolutely perfect for her. She insisted that we keep the lights on during family movie night tonight because she had "important things to write on my clipboard!"
And please forgive me for being late in acknowledging your sweet gift. The package got "set aside" for me at the office, which means that it was delivered Tuesday and I didn't see it until today.
ETA: Sorry, y'all. Don't know why I can't get my picture to post. Lulu got my DD a Frozen board game and a Doc McStuffins tracing clipboard.
ginkgoleaf thank you so much!! noah is going to FLIP when he opens his daniel tiger goodies! i'm going to upload a pic of him with the stuff but he's been having a few challenging nights so i didn't want to give it to him yet with that behavior! hoping tomorrow or saturday he's better!
it's the daniel tiger book, trolley and stuffed animal! he's seriously going to lose it lol!
Yay, can't wait to see pics! Btw I totally wanted to get him the "Daniel tiger gets a baby sibling" book but it's not getting released till January.

<abbr>JRo Yay I'm so glad he/you like everything! Like I said, it was fun shopping for him since he and DS are so close in age. DS received That's Not My Lion from pugz and That's Not My Snowman from my Mom last weekend and he LOVES those books. He keeps flipping through them over and over. We are new to the "That's Not My..." series and they're definitely a hit in our house.
He is seriously adorable. That cheese face!!! Can't wait to see pics of his crescents </abbr>
Thanks so much to osulori and AJ for the awesome Sandra Boynton books! L loves them and I'm excited for some new bedtime reading material.
Oh wow, they got there fast! Glad L loves them...we have 3 of the 4 (and I think my sister got AJ Moo Baa Lalala), all things Sandra Boynton are very big hits with AJ There will be one more package coming, hope it gets there faster than originally stated too!
