Christmas 2008

Andrew was really cute this Christmas. He kept telling me that it was his birthday and I would tell him, no it is Baby Jesus' birthday. After that when we would talk about presents he would say that is was Jesus' birthday and then point to a present and say that is His present. The night of Christmas Eve when I put him to bed I was telling him that he needed to go to sleep so Santa can come down the chimney and bring him presents, but if you don't go to sleep he is going to fly over and take John Michael and Ryan their presents. Shhhhh, let's listen if we can hear the bells on his sleigh. Then Andrew would put his finger by his ear and say "I hear him". The very first thing out of his mouth the next morning was "Ryan got presents?". When he finally came down stairs I think he was sort of shocked that there were actually toys under the tree. He was so cute. We were really blessed to be able to spend Christmas with Marc's family in MI. I will post pictures later of our snow days. I hope everyone had a nice New Year.

Santa brought Andrew a Buzz Lightyear, a Scooby toy, a travel Aquadoodle, a DVD and some books.

It always seems that the parents play with the toys as much as the kids.

He was excited about his Buzz Lightyear

Santa put "Red" from Cars in his stocking

Andrew was so excited that there was candy in his stocking
