christmas

christmas morning was still pretty low-key at our house, since little man still has no idea what is going on. husband and i are trying to enjoy that while it lasts!

we spent the morning at home, just the three of us, and watched Caleb open his presents.


the first thing he spotted was bob-the-tomato. he gave him a big smile.....


and then went in for a kiss.....


the open-mouthed kind that lets you know he REALLY loves you.

then he spotted larry-the-cucumber, and they all became fast friends.....


just in case anyone out there doesn't have kids or you live under a tree, bob and larry are from veggie tales - christian cartoons about talking vegetables that are obviously a really big hit around here.

he opened a few more presents.....




and then he decided that bella's new toys were more fun. so he ran around and played with them the rest of the time.....


but that's ok, because bella stole his new sock-monkey.....


we spent the rest of the day at my folks' house with my side of the family.

i went straight for mom's cinnamon rolls that she makes every christmas.

bobby went straight for the pigs-in-a-blanket and sausage balls, which have also become a christmas tradition.

we probably eat about 14,673 pigs throughout the day.

we opened more presents.....


we ate more food.

we played mom's new outburst bible game.

we discovered we don't know as much as we probably should.

but the girls knew more than the guys.

not that it matters, because it's just a game.

but if you were keeping track, the girls knew a lot more.

and we won.

but it's just a game.

and then we ate more food.

we watched the titans playoff dreams abruptly vanish because they lost really, really bad disappear.

and then we were tired. so we went home and went to bed.
