The Big Day

We had a great Christmas. The boys were so excited they couldn't sleep on Christmas Eve, so they slept until 7:30 Christmas morning. I was surprised; I thought for sure they would be up by 5:00. This year was the most fun because all three of them "got it," and their excitement was infectious. Santa brought them a humongous remote control car, which was the first thing they saw. There was a lot of jumping and laughing, and yelling about how awesome it is. Tyler got his Lightning McQueen, along with Sally and Doc (which are now lost, of course), Jason got a race track (special thanks goes to Grandma West for that one. She helped Santa out), and Joey got his much coveted Transformers. I discovered that when you buy christmas presents throughout the year you end up buying a lot more than you normally would. So they got quite a haul, thanks to that, and generous Grandparents. Tyler got sick of opening presents. He just wanted to play with what he opened, and refused to open the last three. Jason didn't care too much what he got, he just wanted to open as many as he could get his hands on. Joey was just all around thrilled with everything. The day was very relaxing and fun, as the boys were totally entertained by their new toys, and I got to take a long afternoon nap. What a great day.
Jason got a scooter from Grandma Moore, which is fun in our hallway, but is going to be way more fun outside in the summer. Joey got a garbage truck which was SO awesome that he knew it was way too much to even ask Santa for. I guess he knows Santa is on a budget. So he was totally thrilled when he got it from Grandma West.

Tyler's baths have doubled, both in length and frequency, since he got some awesome bath toys from Grandma Moore.
