The tree after Santa left our house. The ride on toy on the left was a gift from Jason's parents, oma and pop pop, that arrived just in time for Christmas Day.
His stocking with Tyrone peeking out.
Reading one of his new books. Eli got LOTS of new books!
He discovered Tyrone!!
Eli's new baby! Santa found this on a really great site: Dolls Like Me. This baby is so cute and cuddly! He has on little pajamas and carries a bear with matching PJ's. I think this is Eli's new snugglebunny.
Playing with his Little People bus. He loves buses and was very excited about this gift!
We went to my parents' house in the afternoon to celebrate with my family. My mom always makes Christmas very special with every little detail. We stuffed ourselves, we laughed, talked, and made a huge mess of my parents' house! It wouldn't be Christmas any other way! ;) I even made Guatemalan Christmas Punch (Poche). Delicious!
Eli's cousins gave him the Little People fire truck and this was a HUGE hit!
Mamaw and papaw gave Eli this Backyardigan's guitar.
Christmas family pic at the end of the day. Eli was wired by this point! It was a very busy and exciting day and I think he was asleep the minute his head hit the mattress.
So glad you all had a great Christmas together. I was thinking of you. I do remember last year..I remember getting up in the night for Reese's bottle, and while it was heating sneeking in to check to see if you updated--and there he was crawling!!! Oh, I cried giving Reese his bottle that night thinking of you!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like Santa took good care of Eli. Keep me posted on your trip to ME!!!
