Christmas #1
Okay, people, prepare yourselves for the deluge of Christmas posts. We've got lots to go through!
Christmas #1 was on the actual Christmas day, first at our house. Caleb got up very early (he's finally at that stage!) but quietly waited downstairs with Dad until Andy and Jakey woke up. It was a long wait (almost two hours!) and I am very impressed that he held out! First, we opened stockings. 
It's funny how different the boys are; Caleb likes to open everything as quickly as possible so he can scan all his gifts and play with his favorites. Andy is very methodical; slowly unwrapping the gift, putting all his wrapping paper in one pile, looking at his gift for a while, then putting those all in another pile. Jakey didn't realize what the gifts were, but let me tell you, by the end of Christmas he knew just what to do!
The boys (and I) have started a tradition of making Paul a gift each year. This year we decorated an apron. 
After opening gifts at our house, we headed to Grandma and Grandpa's for brunch and a few more gifts. Jakey especially loved "Doggy".
