Christmas morning was SO much fun this year now that Sawyer is really able to understand the whole idea of Santa. We left out milk and cookies on Christmas Eve, and Sawyer kept dragging me over to the window to see if we could see Santa's sleigh in the sky before he fell asleep. In the morning Sawyer saw that the cookies were missing, and he was beyond ecstatic! We ran to the window to see if he could catch Santa flying away, and instead of being bummed because we couldn't see him, he became convinced that Santa must still be downstairs. After he opened his presents he was sad that Santa hadn't been downstairs after all, but only because he was really disappointed that he didn't get to tell Santa "thank you" in person. I told him we could write Santa a thank you card, and he agreed that maybe that would be okay this time around.
For some reason the sound on this video gets kind of lost and fades in and out (likely because our camera is on its deathbed), but you can still watch the boys opening their presents from Santa on Christmas morning. Sawyer got a Thomas mine shaft tunnel for his train table and a Kidizoom digital camera (which I'm very proud to say he has already learned to use really well - so much for worrying if it was going to be too advanced for him!). Sutton got a push button guitar and an electronic musical bongo drum set, and he was rocking out from the minute he pulled that guitar out of the bag!
Checking out Daddy's stocking loot (he got movies, a chocolate orange, beef sticks and lottery tickets. Mommy got gift cards to Barnes & Noble, Carl's Jr. & Panera - yum!)
