Blossom was super excited to open a cheerleader puppet (which she promptly used to stage a quick show from behind the couch!),

a new Snow White dress to replace a well-worn one,

and finally a "musical sit and spin." When she first took off the wrapping, she was nearly in tears over this "baby toy." (A toddler was pictured on the box!) I told her there was NO way a baby could play this toy and when Pops got it all put together...

she had changed her mind!!!

I think that it was a fun day... so far!! Next up - presents from some grandparents and a bit of vertigo for me with a day full of sensory overload!!!
