Christmas Day

Christmas morning wasn't quite as magical as I anticipated or made it out to be in my head.  Big Willie woke up at 4am.  He wasn't giddy with the excitement of Christmas morning or what Santa had left him.  He was cranky and decided to hate life which made the day a little more stressful due to tantrums.

Miss M was excited but not all out crazy excited.  She was happy though and loved everything she got.  We heard multiple times how amazing or beautiful things were after she opened presents.  

My favorite present was a gummy bear night light which was in the kids stocking.  Big Willie liked it.

But he LOVED the new bottles in his stocking.

Big Willie got new baseball hats. He likes wearing baseball hats.  He refused to wear a stocking hat longer than 3.1 seconds before the weather became 20 below zero.  Now he's thrilled about a hat and gloves.

Great Aunt Lynne made Miss Cate the most beautiful quilt.

Oh great grandpa just being grandpa

Great Aunt Lynne went through her sewing scraps and put it together for Miss M.  It's perfect for her craft skill level.

Sydney, the puppy, was sniffing out the baby.

She must have smelled so good she tried to eat her.

Oh Big Will has so much love to give.

They looked like they were going to take a lovely sibling Christmas card.

but Big Will decided he was done giving and receiving love and didn't want Miss M to touch him.
