Merry Christmas

Well we had a very Merry Christmas and we hope you did too! Beware, LOTS of pictures. I couldn't help myself. This year we celebrated Christmas Eve because we thought I was going to be working Christmas day. Santa's elves need some tutoring. We sort of forgot to put the big present together...Lucky for us the little prince was patient playing in his room while we worked.

His patience paid off, I think he like his new toy. Maybe soon he will be able to push it all by himself, but I am thinking it is going to be awhile.

Mom, Linde and I always wear matching PJ's. This years were from Ann Taylor Loft, I highly recommend them. They were on sale, are very soft and not too small. It seems like lots of PJ's are too small who wants to be squished while they sleep?

Avery also had fun kicking back reading some of his new books. He especially likes the ones that Great Aunt Suzi illustrates.

I got some little spatulas in my stocking, but somebody thought he needed them more.

Daddy got chip clips...

Like any good kid the shiny ribbon was a huge hit. So was the book with pictures of the family, including the pugs.

Mamma and her stocking treasures.

Jeff and Linde having fun.
We eventually took off our pajamas and had a wonderful Christmas lunch. We even got to share it with Jeff's parents Steve and Linda, it was great to get to celebrate with so many people.
Avery joined us and had teething biscuits even though it was nap time. He decided his Christmas present to himself was NO naps. Even without them he was still really great, but he did sleep 15 hours that night.
See here he is happy and smiling for his 9 month picture before he went to bed. I can't believe he is 9 months old!

We also had a great Christmas day and day after. I will tell you about those soon.
