It Looked A lot Like Christmas





Here's the story from top to bottom.
We woke up the two older kids on Christmas morning, and they were amazing. We had so much fun opening presents with Grandma, Grandpa, Auntie and Uncle. We're so lucky to have Grandparents who will bring some of their presents and participate with our Christmas morning. It so contributes the feelings of Christmas morning that I remember.
Cooper was in love with his stocking Pringles and dollar toys. He had so much fun opening lots of little things, I'm going to do that forever!
He loved his firetruck. It was too cliche not to get. He slept with the truck on Christmas day, and continues to sleep with it next to his bed.
Baby Abby managed to break her glasses the night before Christmas Eve
at 4:45. Translation-too late to do anything about it before the super long Christmas weekend. Our biggest gift to her was continuing to tape/band aid/superglue her glasses until her new ones came. It was such a challenge because I knew she was struggling to see each day, it was tough. But all is well now. Babs is in love with anything stuffed right now, so we got her the biggest stuffed animal we could find. In one of the pictures you can see her sleeping with it, those are her pink boots in the bottom.
After present opening, we had family come for breakfast, and we had a blast.
Merry Belated Christmas!

My Cooper got that same firetruck and has slept with his next to his bed every night since. He also got a ton of other trucks, it looks like a mini garage in his room. Your kids are so dang cute! -Kelsee
