It's Finally Here!

Christmas eve service in my spiffy outfit:



We all had a major cold, so he was pretty mellow for the service (not his normal mode) and people were asking us if we had been practicing with him. Hmm...at least he was good. Plus we missed the first few songs while he and mommy were back at the car with a massive diaper change. Merry Christmas to me.

I gave in and let him play with the antique Tonka truck so he wouldn't get his church clothes messy while we were getting ready.

Christmas eve the boys watched some Rudolph while I made the Christmas coffee cake. Bryce brought over a blanket so he could sit next to daddy.

Here's one of the tree and loot before we went to bed. Hmm, I wonder what that pyrex pan shaped one could be for me...Andrew was very proud of this wrapping job.



Well, it's finally here, baby Jesus' birthday, and boy was our son excited. When Andrew brought him out to the Christmas tree, he was more excited that the cat was sitting on my lap than to see the presents under the tree, but I think that's probably a good thing.

Baby Jesus got some of Bryce's stocking goldfish.

So the picture is bad, but mostly because he was so excited about this present that he was flapping his arms. It's a tool box.

Ripping into the presents with my hammer. (we had to do them all this way, some of mommy's too)

Cool dude! A helicopter!

Some good books from Auntie Amber.



Then off to Nana and Baba's for a Christmas/Birthday dinner. (And some more fun-thanks uncle Ryan for letting us borrow these)


My Christmas hat!
