Christmas 2009

Christmas Morning was alittle overwhelming for Dominic. He did not want to peek. He wanted everyone to just leave him alone. I am hoping next year he will be more excited about the whole process. The night before, we were trying to get him to go to sleep, all he would say is "no Santa, No presents, he would close the door". I tried to tell him that Santa would bring him some presents if he would go to sleep, but he keep saying No Santa.

Once he realized he had somthing new he really wanted to see what it was. He started to get excited slowly. He loves his CandyLand Game. He can match all the color and shapes on his own.

He loves his talking Wubzy. He loves this little guy. I think if we did not control the TV he would watch this show all day long. Good thing there are fun things to do outside.

Like riding his new Big Truck. He broke his old truck before Christmas. We thought this little one was cute, but he keeps saying it is too big. I think he is talking about it being wide. He cannot take quick turns in the house like he used too. He is getting used to it.

Courtney enjoys her new shirt. She said she loved the scarf that went with it better than the shirt itself. I guess we could have just given her a scarf. Small things make her happy.

Like this new camera. She is taking lots of pictures and enjoying taking videos of Dominic.

The smallest of all got the biggest smile. She was really excited to get a phone. She has a small phone that you pay as you go. She has to be good to keep getting minutes on it.

Michele wanted this book from the TV show Castle. It think it will be fun to read it.

Mom got some earrings that she really wanted. But when she took a shower, she forgot to take them out. One went down the drain. Talk about not holding on to something for 24 hours. Oh well, I guess she will have to wait til her birthday or next christmas. Not many pictures of me since I was the one taking the pictures. But I love all my presents this year. I got a pink New York Yankees watch, the Vampire Diaries series books, a chopper and some money. I enjoyed this Christmas will the family. With us moving down to Georgia, I was not able to visit my Aunt. I really miss her big spread she has. Her vegetables and cookies are the best. I guess we will have to start something down here. We are thankful for all we have, our family, friends, health, and the gospel. We are truly blessed.
