Lest we forget: Christmas
I took embarrassingly few pictures on Christmas Day. Embarrassingly few.
Like, fourteen.
Yeah.
We missed all of our extended families' formal gatherings and I neglected to take the camera to our drop-in visits. And then our Christmas Day festivities got hectic and I became cat-herder to Aden, who had no interest whatsoever in opening gifts.
Anyhoo, here are the boys on Christmas morning. Aden went in to wake up Trey, who grunted and whined and hid in his bed.
Until he remembered what day it was.
Then we had to painstakingly wait on Daddy to get up. Boy, that was a tough ten minutes.
And it was a testament to their personalities, as to how they approached their gifts. Trey took a moment to look around, as Aden jumped directly on the first thing he could find. That's about right.
We played a little bit, then got ready for church. No nursery in honor of Christmas Day, so this was Aden's first worship service. For a child that hates to sit down, you can imagine how that went.
Becuase of wanting to go to church, we moved our family get-together from a breakfast party to a dinner party. And had a great time anyway. And I took hardly any pictures. But of course the boys racked up on gifts (as did we!), and then positively collapsed into bed after everyone left.
It was good. Very, very good.
