This morning when we woke up, we ate breakfast and then showed Beckett all of the gifts Santa brought him. It's so amazing to watch him - he loves the things he opens, but he is perfectly content without the presents. He didn't try to open them early or run out to the tree to dig in - he loves each item as it is unwrapped and spends time playing with each new toy. :)
Here are a few pictures from our morning!
Afterwards, the guys took a nap and /I worked on the bunting for Baby's room. When we got up and ready, we went to MeeMaw and Papa's house to enjoy Christmas with them. My brother Matthew was home, too, and mom made an amazing amount of delicious food for us to nibble on prior to dinner. We opened presents, and again, I felt guilty to see how much Beckett received! We have so much and it makes me want to give more to others. We didn't get much for my parents this year, which made me feel even worse. I know it isn't about the presents, but I want them to know how much we appreciate all they do for us and the role they play in Beckett's life! It's the same way I feel about Janis; even though it shouldn't be about presents, I want to show them how much they mean! I hope we were able to do that this Christmas, and I need to do a better job of it every day throughout the year.
Here are some fun pictures from our time at MeeMaw and Papa's!
Checking out the tree - he said, "Pretty tree!"
He got his very own broom, just his size...
...but he still wanted to play with the grown-up size broom!
We loved this game when we were little - now he can play Don't Break the Ice, too!
Opening a big present with Papa. (laughing)
A fireplace for his playroom! He gave Papa a hug and said, Thank you!
Aunt Mandy and Uncle Levi sent a game for him to play - The Sneaky Snacky Squirrel
A drill from MeeMaw and Papa to go with the tool table from MeeMaw and Papa Hild!
Uncle Matthew likes the Toy Story PJs Papa picked out for him.
Shonn has a family picture of us at dinner - I will try to upload it later!
