Never was there a Christmas met with such anticipation in the Day house! We had a lot of fun trimming our tree with the aid of a two-foot person who redecorated it throughout the Christmas season. Last year my mom gave Hunter a cute globe that plays Christmas music and by the end of December we were praying the batteries would die but wouldn’t you know it, that thing was like the energizer bunny… it kept going and going and it still going.
It was fun to shop for our little guy and although opening gifts were not his biggest priority this year (it was more about the paper and boxes) we loved watching him discover his gifts and how they worked.
We set a Christmas record, NO presents were opened before December 24th!! You know your bad when both your moms send gifts with big black letters printed on the front of all your presents, “DO NOT OPEN UNTIL DECEMBER 25th.” They stopped writing the word Christmas because Ellis interpreted it to mean anywhere between November 26th and December 25th.
Once again Ellis found his stashed present and despite all my attempts to make Christmas a surprise he is just a good snoop. However, when it came to peaking at the wrapped presents I fixed his curiosity by duck taping around the seams of his gifts. I enjoyed a great Christmas and received some wonderful gifts from my loving husband and very adorable son!
