Merry Christmas!

Here is Deziree. She decided that sleeping in is not for her. She was up at 6:00 am, like every other day. As we waited for the boys to wake up she decided that the presents were just too tempting. We waited for the boys to wake up. They finally got up about 7:30.

Here is Ben with his big present. So it wasn't so big. He wanted Bakugon. These particular ones go together to make one big Bakugon.

Here is Gavin's big present. He got a Kid K'nex building thing with Elmo in it. He sure loves Elmo.

Here is Deziree's big present. It was a Cabbage Patch Doll. I loved mine as a little girl. She has loved when I play peek-a-boo with the doll, and to suck on the bottle that came with the doll.

David's good friend Chris, gave Ben and Gavin some small Pikachu's. The boys have enjoyed playing with them. He also gave them the first three Pokemon movies. I now get to enjoy Pokemon all the time.

Chris sure likes to give my kids noisy toys. This is a squeaking giraffe. Dez has laughed at the noise. Thanks Chris.

Adam had our name for Christmas. He sent the boys the new Lego Indiana Jones video game. Both Gavin and Ben have enjoyed it. Gavin's favorite things to drive/ ride on are the elephant and the tree cutter. The best thing about the game is when you play in 2 player mode, the screen splits and lets each person do what they want to do. There is no more of "Mom, he's not following me." And no more frustration with Gavin still learning. (well until you need the character to advance in the level). Thanks Adam.

Here is Dez trying to rip down the tree and ornaments. Gavin wasn't too happy about that. This is why I didn't put a  real tree!
