Christmas always comes and goes way to fast. It is so sad. We went to the mall today and James wanted to see Santa! Awe! Anyhow, we had a great Christmas. When we woke up Christmas morning we waited for Brianna to awake, which wasn't that long after. Thank goodness. She still gets excited too, especially since she was awaiting a special gift! My Mom and Tom come over to watch the kids open their gifts and have breakfast, Craig makes his eggs that are becoming famous! We started with our stockings which James had been good about not really touching and he didn't even notice that there was a Curious George sticking out of his.
So Brianna gave James his stocking and he freaked out! He hit it and it flew, a couple times! He didn't want anything to do with it! We were all in shock and tried not to laugh! We have it on video and once I upload it I will post it! Finally when I started taking cars out of it he was so excited and wanted more. I guess he was a little confused on that part! He did enjoy opening his other presents though!
The only thing that Brianna wanted for Christmas was an Ipod touch. Santa brought it for her! She was so excited!
After Santa gifts we go down to Craig's sister's house for Christmas with his family. Here is James with one of his favorite presents of the day from Auntie Chris and Uncle JP!
Cousin Mitch and James
From there we went to my Mom's for Christmas with some more of the family.
James received another one of his favorite toys! Now we have two. Yeah!
James actually playing nicely and sharing his train with Jade and Aunt Rochelle!
Kissing cousins! Jade and James
All in all Christmas went well except for the fact that I forgot to mention in the Christmas Eve post that we did have a little mishap. James burnt his hair on a candle! Poor thing was eating a cookie sitting on my lap at the table at Nonni's house and there was a advent wreath with lit candles. He stood up to reach for another cookie and when he leaned over to get it he caught his hair on fire! He was smoking and I started hitting his head. He burnt quite a few hairs! He was ok though. I think more scared that I was hitting him than the actual hair catching fire!
We hope everyone had a great Christmas as well!

Glad you had a fun Christmas. I have to see that video of James! I was just cracking up reading your story! And who is Jade? Is she from Craigs side?
I totally just laughed out loud about you hitting James in the head to try to stop his hair from burning!! I could just see him wondering what the heck you were doing!! Ha!! And how funny that I can TOTALLY picture him smacking his stocking & watching it fly across the room!! Ha!! What a funny kid!! Glad that Brianna got what she wanted...must be easy when kids get older & just want one thing!! =)
What a fun Christmas! And that is a funny story about James. :) I can't wait to see that video!
And I'm jealous Santa brought Brianna the ipod touch! I've been asking Santa for that and still haven't got it! I better get it for my b-day in Feb!
