Today was Christmas!! It was a pretty good day. We had the baby monitor on in our room so we could here Conner and Emma if they woke up. They were kind of getting up a little before 3 so Eric told them to go back to bed. Luckily, I was able to fall back asleep. Just before 6 I heard a soft tapping on my door. I opened it and it was Emma. She excitedly whispered, "Look what I got!" She had a stuffed Bluey in her arms. I told her to go back out to the living room and I'd be out in a minute. I hurry and got dressed and came out. They had already gone through what they go from Santa. We hung out in the living room playing with our Santa gifts.
Owen woke up about 7:30ish and then Eric got up too. Owen got pretty
excited about his stocking stuff.
After we saw what we got in our
stockings then we got to open our presents. I had numbered all of the
presents from me to everybody else so nobody would know who's was whose.
Only I had the master list. I'd have Conner and Emma pick a numbered
present and then I'd look up who it went to and then they'd give it to
that person. I kind of liked it that way. There were also presents other
people that weren't numbered of course. It was fun watching the kids
open their presents. Owen got pretty excited about his ambulance,
firetruck, helicopter (thinks it's Dust Crophopper), and a garbage
truck). He loved that they made noises. He probably would have been
happy if he just got those. After we opened presents, everyone just
played with their stuff and watched TV. I fell asleep on the recliner
for a bit.
For lunch we just had leftovers. Then we just played with our stuff and just chilled. For dinner we had sweet and sour meatballs and funeral potatoes from Judy Taylor's recipe. It's so good. Eric made dinner too. It was pretty good. We just chilled the rest of the night.
