Christmas Morning

Christmas Morning we all woke up excited to open our presents! We ran down to the tree and started opening our presents first thing.
We were so happy to share our first Christmas as a family!

Noah got some bath toys, puzzles, and a book of poems. This tool set from Aunt Patricia was his very favorite present of all, and kept him occupied all day!
Dad got a gift certificate to home depot in clever packaging from his sister Patricia, along with a bunch of handy stuff for our new house. Noah and I got Dad the new Droid phone. He loves it and and been playing with it all weekend.
Holly got an awesome serving platter from Patricia which she has already used to entertain guests! (Thank you Tricia! I love it!) and a bunch of fun craft stuff from Scott.

Next it was time to make some breakfast. This is Noah's favorite position and is almost always in mom's arms while i cook and clean and do stuff around the house.

Noah decides to try the potato I am peeling


Yuck! He did not like it! That did not stop him from trying it again and again though, each time with a more bitter face.
Breakfast is served!
Next it is Noah's turn to eat
Mom loves the time we spend snuggling together.
Time to cuddle

Next it is time to read the Christmas stories. Writing Christmas stories is a long time tradition in Scott's family, and this year the Bell family decided to follow suit. Everyone wrote a memory or thought and we mailed them to each other to arrive by Christmas. Scott and I took turns reading the stories from both sides of the family. This was the most fun part of Christmas and will definitely be something I look forward to every year.

Merry Christmas everyone!!!! Thank you Neena for making our dreams come true!!!!
