Christmas Craziness!

Rounding out the year with some Christmas fun.

Liam hangs with Aunt Michelle on Christmas Eve.

After we return home, the kids put out snacks for Santa and the reindeer.

Christmas morning, the tree awaits them...
Unbeknownst to Liam, Santa has left him a surprise right as he lay sleeping.

Liam starts to awaken, and realize the surprise gift....a new bedspread feature Lego Joker, which is his current favorite!


The excitement doesn't end, as Liam heads down to see what is under the tree.

The kids patiently post for pictures.

Liam and Maia love opening the gifts.


Liam is excited to give Maia his gift to her.

He helps her open it and then shows it off. FisherPrice superheros/villains!

Liam gets a set of Batman villains (and Batman, but Liam cares more about the villains).

Maia gets her best gift yet....a baby doll!!

She is in love with her baby and starts feeding it right away.

And rocking her to sleep.

And taking her out for a stroll.

Now Liam and Maia are ready to head to Grandmom/PopPop's house for the bigger round of gifts.

Maia settles down in a rocker chair just about the right size for her.

Which she then wants moved closer to the gifts.

And then opts for the floor in order to more efficiently open gifts.

Taking a break...

More gift-opening!

What's in there?

It's a pink horsie rocker!

Cousin Cole is into opening gifts as well.

Maia gets a baby doll that will live at Grandmom's house.

She practices using her new stroller to push the baby around in.

Together...

Since there is so much that my children are doing together, I figured I would combine their blogs and post about them both here. Sometimes it may be Liam, sometimes Maia, and sometimes both.  If you wish to look through their original individual blogs, those links can be found on the right side of this page.
