Christmas Time

Christmas!!!! What a day that was. :)

On Christmas Eve, Kimber and Elias didn't want to go to bed. Kimber even got up out of been around 10:45pm to see if Santa had been here yet...not yet. He didn't get up again until after 7:00am, when Greg got him up.

Kimber was so excited he jumped right to the presents. He saw some Matchbox/Hotwheels that were not wrapped --- they wouldn't fit in the stocking. Of course he wanted to open the largest gift 1st, but we wouldn't let him. He kept going back to it. We still wouldn't let him open it. It was going to have to be the last present he opened. He wan't to happy about that, but he was super excited to see he got 2 sets of wall tracks for hotwheels. Just what he had asked Santa for. We finally let him open the large gift....it was a boat with a shark. There are different parts to the boat so he can design the boat how he wanted to. It also floats in water --- he wanted a bath right away. Which he didn't get until after 6:00pm.

Kimber ended up helping Elias with open his gifts. Elias just wanted to play with the cars and trucks. Once he realized that he gets more toys when he opens the presents, he started opening them. Well, only a few. He was getting to distracted.

They both enjoyed playing with their new toys. Kimber surprised all of us with a big generous move. He gave Elias one of the wall tracks!!! That made Elias happy, but I think it made Kimber the happiest. He was so happy now that both of them had a wall track to put up on their walls. Both Greg & I was very proud of him.

This year we didn't have any of "That is MY toy!!" and they combined their toys instead of putting them in separate piles. What big boys we have. We hope that this phase will last a long time!
