Christmas Day!

I can't believe this is all over and done now! It went by way too quick and I refuse to take down decorations till next year, shoot.. I think I might even wait until our HOA starts complaining! ;) Mitch's 1st Christmas was so wonderfully perfect, it is amazing how much more fun and special it is with your own child!! Seth and I just loved watching him take it all in, creating traditions with him and showing him everything Christmas!!! This is how our day went...

We woke up and opened stockings, ate our classic cinnamon roll breakfast, Mitch had cereal with little bites of our rolls which he loved of course! We opened all our gifts from Santa and each other, Mitch again made out like a bandit! We put some of the toys together for him to play a little with and then he napped! He was SO TIRED from all the excitement he slept until we woke him up to go to Grandma and Grandpa Andres' home! Where he was spoiled once again! Seth's Mom made a wonderful lunch and we opened presents and played games including "Build a Santa" where we won gifts(that Seth's Mom had gotten at work, but couldn't eat because of her braces) if you were the first to complete your Santa, it was fun and Seth and I walked away with Almond Roca and Zebra popcorn! ;) Here are some photos from the fun day...
Mitch in his Christmas PJ's getting into his stocking!
This kept him busy for a bit! ;)
Seth and the book of pics of him and Mitch!
Me and my Castle book I asked for! Love it!
Playing with the Ball Popper he got, he was trying to take the balls out! Took him a couple days to learn how to get it started and to put the balls back in to rotate through! So cute!
This photo is hilarious cause you can tell he is totally wiped from all the excitement! :)
Playing with the gift Grandma Sarah got him, he knew just what to do with it!
How cute is this? Santa knew he would LOVE it!!
Showing off his little chomper that he gave Mommy a Christmas gift with! :( Not a welcome one either!

We are truly blessed by this special spirit in our home and he makes life so much sweeter!! Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas season with your families and hope you have a great New Year!
