Christmas just keeps getting better and better! I thought last year was a blast but this year was even better! We had a rough night before Christmas morning. I don’t know if E’s teeth were hurting him or he fell out of the bed (which is what he told us) or he was just super excited for the morning but he ended up in our bed and did not sleep well the whole night which meant we were 3 tired people Christmas morning. But that didn’t stop the excitement!
When will I learn that I should be video taping these moments instead of taking pictures! Oh well at least I caught this picture. I think it catches a lot of his excitement. Eli is saying, “My drums!”
And here are the drums from Nanny and Pop Pop that caused all that excitement.
Eli must have been a good boy because Santa brought him lots of good stuff! That pillow pet has been snuggling with E every night!
But after taking a look at what Santa brought E had to get back on his drums!
We finally got E off the drums to look through his stocking. He’s modeling his new Bob watch.
That stocking can hold a lot of stuff!
Digging way deep to make sure he got everything out.
Checking out the drums while eating a candy cane before breakfast!
Eli finally noticed that the cookies and egg nog we left for Santa were gone.
After the candy cane break it was back to the business of opening more presents.
PJs from Granny (always needed!)
Eli had to stand up to get this one open.
A cowboy hat from mom and dad.
This was my present! Isn’t cute?!
Look at all the new trains!
For some reason Eli decided that Thomas needed a spanking.
Daddy being silly!
After all the present opening fun we had breakfast of cinnamon rolls, egg nog and read the Christmas story.
Eli is just like his daddy and loves egg nog!
After Breakfast Eli decided to try out his new boots. It took him a little practice to walk in them.
Gotta love a boy in PJs, hat and boots!
Eli had to wear his hat and boots in the car on the way down to League City. What you don’t see in this picture is that E had to also bring his Pillow Pet with him.
When we got to Melissa and Jonathan’s house we seemed to have caught Caleb off guard!
Then GG and GPaw showed up and brought the boys their first scooter.
So the boys spent a lot of time being pushed around the house on the scooters.
After all the excitement E needed a break on the Pillow Pet!
I decided to torture Caleb with Eli’s hat and boots. He wasn’t much a fan of them but he sure did look cute in them.
I think the boys really enjoyed their new scooters!
They then enjoyed a buffet of Cheerios
of course Uncle Derrill showed up and had to try on E’s new hat.
then Eli had to check out Uncle Derrill’s new hat that had a light on the brim.
Since Uncle Derrill had E’s hat E decided to wear Uncle Derrill’s hat.
Caleb got a new chair for Christmas and Eli thought it was pretty neat. I don’t think Caleb liked Sharing his cool chair!
The boys did play well together.
And Eli actually ate some Christmas dinner (I was totally shocked!) So he got to enjoy a cake ball.
Look mom 2 scooters!
Thomas got to pass out the gifts.
Eli loves girls. This is Lana, my sister-in-law’s sister-in-law’s little girl (did you follow that?) We caught these two reading together at the table.
Of course there was more gift opening for Eli
Eli brought Lana a gift.
She looked so cute in her new tutu
and more presents for Eli
An another gift
and once Eli finished opening all his presents he decided to help Caleb with his.
We had such a great Christmas. Each year gets better and better!
