You had a plan. A plan that involved starting with stockings and who was going to open the first gift and who gets to decide when it was time for the next gift. Oh wait, Jacob you just took charge. Stockings are my favorite part and it seems as though you enjoy the little things in life, just as much as I do. Next, you saw the big gifts on the bottom and decided those should be last.
Surprisingly, your plan worked and opening gifts went rather well.
Your sister hit an all time record of the most thank yous to Santa in one day! Every toy was appreciated and wanted to be opened right away!
Your dad even liked a gift that I picked out! So it was the season of giving, and I was ok with it and enjoyed seeing you happy all day and playing with your new toys.
Our favorite moments from the day...
-Jacob's arms flapping with excitement
-Julia busting open the Santa and only taking one bite (later on Andy got into it!)
-seeing you enjoy the hockey game and allowing your sister to have a turn
-coloring your hair with you and watching you explore your new "play" makeup
-watching you sort and split up your dandaides as well as sporting your new fannypac...I did marry an athletic trainer!
-seeing you pick your favorite present of the day...Julia that meant so much to me that you picked the $12 piece of - - - - as your favorite, because I didn't want to get it for you even though you begged for 10 minutes to buy it in the store (not like you)
Jacob, your favorite item is classic...just because we haven't let you have them for the past year as they have been laying around the house. Way to go dad! Hockey was your favorite one too...we didn't want you lifting it up!
