Merry Christmas!

Surprisingly the girls slept in a little bit on Christmas morning. Sofia didn't come into our room until 7:20! I know that doesn't seem late to a lot of people but we consider that "sleeping in" for our kids. She was so excited and wanted to go downstairs immediately. She asked if she could wake Ali up so we could all go down. We convinced her to just stay with us for a little bit until Ali woke up which didn't take long. Once Ali was up we all headed downstairs to see what Santa had brought. The girls were so excited to see all the presents and after going through their stockings started to tear open all their presents. This is the first year that they have reallt just ripped through all the presents. Last year they would open a present and want to play with it but this year they wanted to see what everything was first. It was fun to watch them as they opened their gifts and see the joy on their faces. After all the gifts were open then they were ready for some food so I got out the holiday sweet bread that I had made. I knew they weren't going to come sit at the table for a real breakfast so at least this got something in their bellies. They ate the bread and played with their toys until abou eleven when we had a nice breakfast of bacon, eggs, and homefries. The rest of the day was very lazy. The girls played with their toys, Jason had about 5 cups of espresso/cappucino/coffee since I got him a nespresso machine for Christmas, and I just relaxed. It was a great Christmas!
