Christmas morning... Braden was so, so excited this year. Vivian really wasn't all that interested, she was just playing and enjoying herself. The night before, on Christmas Eve, we put the kids to sleep and set up Christmas. Then Chad, his mom and I played some Trivial Pursuit and realized that it made a lot of sense for us adults to have our Christmas then and there. I mean... Braden doesn't really care what I open and it's kind of a distraction from the kids, so we opened our gifts the night before. Once we did it wasn't hard to figure out why Chad and his mom came up with the idea... they wanted me to get the new flash for my camera so we could enjoy it Christmas morning! Great idea!!! Here are some pics of the kids on Christmas morning.
Expression as he was walking in to see what the man in the big red suit left him
Cheese... this is the look she gives the camera all the time. One day her "smile" for the camera won't look like she's trying to load up her diaper
Candy in the stocking... always a hit.
He got some clothes... he's 4 and already such a man, totally unimpressed with clothes as gifts.
Our little man was spelling out the letters on the label, he can recognize his name, Vivian's name and Mom and Dad. He was "reading" to see who the gift went to.
The Smart Cycle game system from Grandma Carole and Uncle Jimmy... it's been a big hit!
Christmas keeps getting better every year as we see them enjoying it so much. Next year, Vivian should understand it too.
