We had a WONDERFUL Christmas this year - and pretty much celebrated with presents ALL month long it felt like! We really were so blessed and spoiled this year, and having kids to watch enjoy the spirit of Christmas (especially the getting - but trying to also enjoy the giving) was so much more fun!
Since we went to AZ for Christmas this year, we did our presents under the tree before we left! Cash could NOT have been more excited! Here he is with Griff before opening began!
Griff was happy in his Santa suit in the exersaucer, and Cash had his Harry Potter wand (aka his pencil)
Cash telling Griff we are going to open presents, and casting a spell on him too!
He opened this present first - and pretty much didn't care AT ALL about anything else -- should have saved it for last! O how he loves Toy Story! This picture doesn't even begin to describe his excitedment!
Daddy got a tool set with a battery operated drill that he wanted, some shirts, and some pictures of the family all framed! Cash was excited for the tool set too!
Here is Cash with all his presents - he wanted to play hoops but we were literally walking out the door to catch the flight as we finished unwrapping the last of the presents!
I would say we were sure spoiled - and also among the favorite presents was a bible book from Grammy - Cash and I read at least 50 pages a day (good thing they are short), and he always wants to read the same stories over and over! What a great Christmas for this little guy!
I was also REALLY REALLY spoiled this year and love what Chip gave me - my favorite things being the Iphone4 and this awesome new IMAC that I am typing on right now! (also for him) He really is the best present giver and always does awesome gifts! Thanks Santa baby!
Christmas morning was awesome! These cousins were so cute and I was a little worried about Cash freaking out over other presents and wanting theirs - but he was great and was helping Grandma Betty pass out all the gifts! He had SO MUCH FUN with cousins Adella and Cohen - and still talks about how he wants to play with Della Doo and Coco Bean all the time! Wish we lived closer!
While in AZ we had family photos (everyone was there but Heidi) and it was a bit crazy - but here is a little preview of some that were posted for us!
the whole family!
Cash was really frustrating to us as he brought Cohen's Woody and wanted to hold it for every picture. He threw an absolute fit when he couldn't have it! But still - these cousins are way too cute!
This was actually the last picture taken, and we were joking that we should try to get a shot with all the kids crying - well -- pretty much it occurred!
On a side note - Griff turned 6 months yesterday and is growing bigger each day! I love him to pieces, altho he has lately been giving me a run for my money! He wasn't sleeping and then upon Chip's arrival home last night he solved the problem in 5 minutes - put a hat on this little baldy head, and he slept through the night again - guess he was just a little cold! Let's hope that works tonight too! He is darling and so smiley, and by far the cuddliest one in the family! I love snuggling him in and holding him as he sleeps!
Cash loves him too and is a great big brother - getting things for him all the time, playing with him, talking to him, and making him laugh harder than anyone else ever can!
What a great life we have!!!
