We spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in 2011
with just our family of 5
(still can't believe we are a family of 5!).
I thought that this would be relaxing and a nice change...
while it was fun,
it was far from relaxing!
We took all the boys to church for the first time
which was quite a feat.
we did manage to all get in a nap at the same time
(mom & dad included)
which was a fabulous christmas present for us all!
but, adrian and i didn't eat a meal until about 8:30 PM
and didn't open a gift until about that time too.
it was so fun to have these 3 little boys with us on christmas,
but they sure are a lot of work :-)
(a bit blurry, but...)
here is Beck waiting to go downstairs and see what Santa brought
beck enjoying a cinnamon roll at his new big boy table
playing with toys
beck discovering the toy room
love this picture!
(best part is that there was almost nothing new in the toy room...
it's all his old toys and old furniture we had stored in our basement
he just loves that he has his own play room.
that quilt was made by our good friend molly when beck was born
and it totally makes the room!)
we did stock his kitchen
(which was an early present from his grandparents)
with some food.
my boys just hanging out in the toy room
the twins in their christmas outfits from mimi
and, a gourmet Christmas dinner of
microwave mac 'n cheese!
but, hey, he's happy!
though, not quite as i had imagined...
we are so grateful for our 3 boys
& that we were able to spend
Christmas with just our
not so little anymore
family!
