Every year we all get new Christmas PJs to kick off the holiday season. This year was no exception. (Sean picks them out and takes lots of pride in this tradition.) Not only did the kids love their jammies but watching the excitement for both of them was the best part... Especially Anthony's excitement as Lauren opened her present. He was so adorable and cheering her on. Then she got even more excited b/c Anthony was excited. I just loved it!
The presents... such suspense!!
Anthony is clapping for Lauren and she's looking at Sean as if to ask, "What do I do next?"
Anthony was so proud of her opening her first present ever!
Lauren got some My First Christmas pajamas.Anthony got Lightning McQueen!!
Also, our favorite Christmas Elf is back! RED has arrived and is taking notes for Santa! If anyone wants to look up this tradition it's at http://www.theelfontheshelf.com/
It's wonderful! He arrives at our house every year the day after Thanksgiving!
Anthony was whispering seemingly important information to RED every 5 minutes for the first few days after his arrival.
Our Advent Tree. There are random numbers all over it and each day we find the number and place an "ornament" sticker on it. The tree is Lauren's footprints in light green and Anthony's handprints in dark green. And of course he did enough handprints to negate any footprints that might have been visible at one point.
