Christmas Day!
The tree with all the gifts. Most are for Tristan, that's not surprising at all.
I picked up a few things for myself which made for a nice morning for me. Something to look forward to a little later.
The excitement over the various Toy Story items was the highlight of the morning. Each time he saw the characters he'd Ooh even louder than the time before.
There were a number of new pj's, socks and shirt. All were met with enthusiasm. Once he started, it was hard to stop him. He opened one gift right away and when I went to the kitchen for a moment to get his milk, I heard ripping and came back to him opening another gift, this time it was mine! lol There was a half unwrapped box set of books for me. That's when I had to watch what he was doing. He was on a roll.
Next week we get to do this over again, in a sense. My Dad will be visiting and there will be some more gifts. Remember those crocheted food pieces I was making, well he gets them when my Dad visits. He'll get the whole kit and caboodle at once! Fully functioning play kitchen :) He's going to so excited all over again!
This morning has been a blast. We had a wonderful brunch of egg nog pancakes, bacon and eggs. I started my day with an egg nog latte, very yum. I've got some warm appetizers I'll be heating up in a bit to nibble on. Might even pull out a small cheese round and crackers. I'm making an effort to make this day different than our usual days together. So far I think it's working.
Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays!
