My first Christmas

Dec 25 - Christmas morning. I finally get to rip into all those presents. When I woke up and after Mommy fed me it was present time. I started with workbench and tool set that Santa brought me. It was really cool and I couldn't wait for it to be out of the box before I started playing with it.

I opened my Caps jersey next and Mommy put it on me so I could rock the red immediately.I opened a bunch more gifts including a new phone, a set of keys, and the big present was a new bike! It is a cool grow-with-me tricycle that at this age Mommy or Daddy can push me around as I am seat belted in. As I get older I will be able to peddle myself. We will put that together another day.

I didn't have enough patience to open my last couple of presents so we put those back under the tree for later. I played with my few new presents until I was ready to go back to sleep.

I woke up to a lot of noise in the family room. Mommy came and got me and I saw that everyone was here. Aunt Katie, Uncle Mike, Uncle Dave, Aunt Erin, CJ, Ryan, Kasey, and Haley were all playing and talking and Kenzie was still asleep in her carseat. I wish I could sleep through all that. Anyway, I started to get passed around to everyone and then I got to get on the floor and crawl. I really had a great time with everyone and was all ready to open more presents. I got a cool car track from Aunt Katie and Uncle Mike and an awesome lion on wheels and new red coat from Aunt Erin and Uncle Dave. Grandmommy and Granddaddy got me a helicopter and a mailbox. Everything was great. And all the grandkids got to take a picture with Grandmommy and Granddaddy. Oh, and they really loved the book that Mommy and I made them. I was really happy.

I was put in the crib for my second nap. Everyone left while I was asleep except Grandmommy and Granddaddy. I got to say goodbye to them. Then it was off to the Harrington House. There I spent some time with Grandma and crawled around the kitchen.

Then Daddy let me play on the steps. I crawled up a bunch of them and practiced going down. I did ok, trying to go the same way I get off the couch. But after a few tried I had enough. We went downstairs and saw Aunt Erin, Aunt Lynn, Uncle Sean, Aidan, Gavin, and Bailey. After a little while Mommy gave Aidan the gift we got for him and Gavin. Aidan opened it and loved it! It was a kid's size hockey set with two goals, two goalie sticks, four player sticks, and a few balls. Mommy took it out of the box and then look out! Sticks and balls everywhere. Gavin, Bailey, Aidan, and Daddy played for a while. I even picked up a stick. I also got to play with Aidan's big hockey player guy. You hit him and he bounces back up. Aunt Lynn and Aunt Erin got my brand new very own busy box out of the box. It is the coolest thing ever. I am going to have so much fun with that even if I didn't seem that interested in it right then. Thanks Aunt Lynn, you are so cool.

It was getting late and decided to go. But we forgot we had to open gifts with Grandma and Chachi. I opened the teach and learn turtle that Grandma got me. I already got it from Mommy and Daddy but its ok, I love it just the same. I spent a little more time with Chachi and Grandma before we called it a night. I was so ready for bed when we got home. It a good thing Christmas only comes once a year, I'm exhausted!
