Josh can open presents on his own now!

Evie has a new pink puppy!!!

Oh it has been the most wonderful (and exhaustingJ) Christmas! I have loved every second of this wonderful day. It’s amazing to watch toddlers experience Christmas. They still don’t understand the concept of Santa. In fact, when they got out of bed this morning, it was a slight challenge to get them to the living room. They wanted to play with all the gifts they received yesterday!!! Once they saw what Santa brought, we had their attention! I think Santa did a pretty good job. I’m still not sure how he got three Cozy Coupes on his sleigh, but I sure am glad he did!

Josh is so happy with his Aaja!

Jesse is just relaxing!

Josh is opening a present!

Maggie wants out of the wagon!

Me and my pink computer!

Aaji, Aaja, and Jesse all came over to celebrate Christmas with us! It was so much fun getting to visit with them. Aaji fixed lunch and brought it over. It was so nice to catch a break and just enjoy being with everyone. Aaji and Aaja brought some fantastic gifts for the kids. However, I would say that I got the best gift! I got a new laptop!!!! I have been using old, beat up computers for the past few years. Now, I have a brand new, PINK computer!!!! I can’t wait to use it. Raj is still working on it, so I haven’t had the pleasure of playing with it yet.

Oh my goodness! How absolutely precious!

Josh doesn’t want to be disturbed while watching Dora!

Evie’s sipping some “tea” and watching television.

Josh found Daddy’s drill

Daddy is already teaching the kids about power tools!

Josh has figured it out!

Tonight I had to go to work. It ended up being great! I got to leave after only two hours! Thanks ladies for keeping those babies in today and for not causing drama! I really, really appreciate it. On my way, I ran by Chin Chin and grabbed dinner for me and Raj. He was very pleasantly surprised. Then, we all got to play until the trio went to bed. It was so wonderful getting to spend time together tonight as a family. It was even better watching the kids enjoy their gifts. At one point as I was watching them play on the slide, I nearly started crying. I know how blessed I am to have what I have. This Christmas as we celebrate the birth of Jesus, I am so thankful he gave me the most wonderful husband and the gift of being a mother. I’m truly blessed. Merry Christmas!!!!
