Seriously, does it get much better than those excited faces? Christmas is so blasted fun with kids. Gabe was bouncing off the walls and Ollie was in awe of it all.
Milo was so overstimulated so fast. Way too much noise and sights, and excitement. So he joined us in the beginning, and went back to bed a little into it. When he woke back up we opened stockings.
Nothing beats a first Christmas. He loved the crinkle of the paper.
We took turns opening like usual, which I love cause it makes things last longer. The kids were great about it as long as they could hold one of their presents while they waited for their turn.
The much awaited Princess Celestia. Gabe LOVES ponies, and has most of them except this one. So she was so relieved that Santa remembered to get her it.
Santa was also nice to me. I got a new ipad mini. Adam got an iphone 5 this year, and for some reason we didn't take a picture. Whoops sorry babe.
This was one of my favorite parts, when they opened the gifts they got for each other. Cute kids were so excited about it.
Gabe told Adam on Christmas Eve that she just really wanted to see what coal from the North Pole looked like. Well Jolly, our elf overheard and brought her a piece even though she's been good. He wanted her to see how much more fun presents were than coal. She was over the coal as soon as it turned her hands black. ;)
This is some of our Christmas breakfast. We had some hot chocolate, scrambled eggs, and toast as well. Super yummy. We still haven't made a breakfast that we've made our traditional breakfast yet. We make something different each year, kinda whatever is easy and what we feel like eating.
We let the other kids unwrap his last few gifts while he slept, they were happy to help. Then he finished up the little stuff in his stocking and enjoyed playing with his fun toys.
It never fails, no matter what Gabe gets, dress up stuff will always be her favorite. She just loves to pretend, and we love that she has an awesome imagination. We thought about getting her some new dress up clothes, cause hers are falling apart from all the use they get, but we didn't. We thought we'd do that for her b-day. So we're glad Nana and Papa got her this. She had it on most of the day.
I did get a pic of him sitting up on his own on Christmas. Hurray! Good job Mi! He fell over soon after that, but he's getting pretty good.
Love these three
We don't make a big meal on Christmas day. We just munch. Ollie just got done consuming half the pickle dip Daddy made him. We aren't sure how he got it all over his pants, but at least he enjoyed it.
I didn't take pictures the whole rest of the day. We were too busy playing with all the fun new stuff. It kept us super busy. Thanks to all, for the fun stuff. My kids got soooo spoiled. (too spoiled) That's what happens when you have so many loving grandparents, and aunts and uncles. Love you all. Merry Christmas!
