Christmas Eve

Ooohhhing over his present...was even more excited to help mom & dad open their's once he found out we were actually opening them. :) The lack of pants is b/c he still sleeps in a diaper and we hadn't put one on just yet...waiting for the new pj's.

I tried to find some Christmas ones, but by the time I got around to it, this was what I found...not that this kid is complaining about Football pj's! :)

Hauling around mom's Christmas pj's...and I must say...I LOVE these pj's. I pretty much wear them all day every day I can. They are so warm and fuzzy!

A couple pictures shortly after Santa left.

This year for Christmas Eve we were invited to Doc & Carla Anderson's for their Christmas Party. (Yup...this is our IVF/baby Dr.) We've been invited in the past, but haven't been able to go, so we decided we go this year. It was a large party with about 5-6 families/members of our ward attending. We all brought food to share, and had a great dinner. Then all the kids there performed The Nativity, The Bug had to observe b/c he kept trying to take the "Baby Jesus" out of the manger. :)

Santa even dropped a bag of goodies off outside their door. :) The Bug got a little Thomas the Train toy and was so excited. Shayne & I even got a gift. It was fun to hang out with the different members of our ward.

After the party (and going out in -15 degree weather), we headed home to open our Christmas Eve present...you know...the pj's! I didn't get picks of all of us in our pj's, but at least I got The Bug.

I also took a pic of all of the fun things Santa left, after The Bug went to sleep. We both love being able to help out Santa...so much fun!

It's amazing how much more magical Christmas is when you have a child in your house that is excited about it. Even The Grinch, Shayne, was a little more "into" it this year b/c of how much fun The Bug was having with all of it.
