Get ready for picture overload. We had a wonderful Christmas and enjoyed spending the entire day at home. It was really hard this year to try and make sure the kids all got "equal" gifts. It's funny how they notice how many presents each has, how big they are, etc. With the kids getting older I'm realizing that stuff costs more money! I absolutely refused to buy the kids stuff that was going to end up living in the corner of a closet somewhere, so I spent a lot of time and thought into what to get each kid.
The kids woke up at 8, but we made them watch shows upstairs til we were ready to get up at 9. I know...we are mean parents. Here they are on the stairs waiting.
This was right after they turned around on 3!
The kids bought each other gifts and they were SO excited to give them to each other:
We got a Karaoke machine for the stage that I built for the girls for Christmas.
Santa knew that the kids would spend the most time on the gift he brought them, so Santa was sneaky and hid their gift so they could open it last. They each got a Nook!
Best. Present. Ever. Mom is very excited that I don't have to share my phone or ipad anymore.
Little Miss Brielle
We enjoyed the morning as a family then all the Ericsons came over around noon. Here are the 3 babies of this year...all born within 3 months:
Skyping to Aaron in Spain on his mission:
We talked to Aaron, played with toys, opened presents, then settled down and watched the Hunger Games.
My parents stopped by early in the evening to visit with us and see what the kids got. The kids had a blast playing with grandpa.
These aren't the best pics of the stage, but I built it for the girls for Christmas.
