Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone!

Isn't it amazing how quickly this year has flown by? The Blocks celebrated Christmas a day early this year because Trav had to work at the fire station today but it worked out well because Little Man and I are just relaxing and hanging out today. Such a treat.

Christmas is so much fun with a kiddo... it changes the whole meaning of Christmas. Since Little Man is a Christmas baby (Dec 23) he had a couple of really big gifts from the fam (fewer, combined presents also helps cut down on the present overload). Here are some of the highlights.....

Not thrilled about his "Christmas Pajamas"

Taking his time opening presents (mom eventually had to intervene)
My budding dentist
(in a new pair of pajamas because he refused to wear the others any longer)

The tool bench and power tools from Nana, Pop, Aunt Ash and Uncle J
Santa, Mommy and Daddy's present

I am fairly certain he had a good time yesterday because he has been completely engrossed in his toys since 7:30 yesterday morning. We're off to my aunt's house tonight for round 2 of Christmas and I am very excited to see Little Man playing with his second cousins. Lots of fun!

Oh and funny story....we have some neighbors who put on this huge light show in their front yard every year that includes a song and dance routine featuring Mr. and Mrs. Claus (this year it was the "Evolution of Dance"). Although Little Man and I have talked a l-o-t about Santa over the last few weeks we have neglected to tell him about Mrs. Claus. Sunday night we walked over to see the show and when Santa and Mrs. Claus came out dancing Little Man exclaimed, "Santa! Oh and Meme!". Meme was a good sport about it when we told her the story the next day at lunch. All through lunch he kept saying, "Hi Meme! Hi Meme!" (I think he thinks she is in pretty good with Santa!)
