Christmas Eve

Collin enjoyed his first Christmas cookies this year...

Mmmmmm!

Anna in her pretty dress after Christmas Eve service.

She was SO excited to open her Christmas Eve present. It was a loooong wait all day for her.

A diaper bag full of fun supplies for her baby dolls.

Collin's turn!

His very own pillow! (It matches his monkey/blankie that he sleeps with)

Benjamin likes to wait until last so that he's the last one doing something fun. For now the other two allow him this. ;) He was really sweet with Collin though and encouraged Collin to help him unwrap his present.

A kids' laptop computer that looks real and has lots of fun activities for him to do....

I had bought them these matching jammies a while back to wear on Christmas morning. I decided I should probably get some pictures of the three of them wearing them in case we had any night time accidents. Good thing, b/c Collin didn't get to wear his bottoms the next morning. ;) They were so fun during this photo shoot.....loving on each other, having fun, and even screaming together!

I had to do some close ups of Collin's expressions (he was so full of joy!!!):

They are so happy and sweet! We are very, very, very blessed!

I love how silly they can be too!

Silly like screaming at the top of their lungs together!

Anna had her first dentist appt. and she said Anna really needed to give up her pacis (she still uses it at night). So she recommended Anna give them to the reindeer when they come with Santa. At first, Anna listened politely to the dentist and then when she asked Anna if she could do that, Anna replied rather bluntly (and hilariously) "no." After some further explaining from me, Anna was on board and did great at putting out her pacis in the reindeer's' bowl.

Then we left some cookies and milk for Santa...

and were off to bed to wait for the magical morning to come.
