xmas eve

Xmas eve was the beginning of four days of the present opening extravaganza that we call xmas.  Like last year, we headed over to Uncle E and Aunt K's house to be with all of Aunt K's family.  Lots of kids, lots of laughter, and a ton of food.  I had made this yummy pumpkin, cream cheese, sour cream dip that you dunk ginger snaps into.  heavenly and addictive!  We got there around 12:30 and then the fun began.

Big guy had fallen asleep in the car on the way there, but soon perked up when he heard all the kids upstairs screaming in the playroom.  He essentially destroyed the room.  Taking out every toy, demolishing all lego made products, and screaming with delight during video game time with hubs.  It was so super fun to see him running around having fun.  Following lunch, it was time to open presents. Big guy got two of the same gift (which Aunt K and her sister had both unknowingly bought him), a hess helicopter, and a interactive ball.  big guy was thrilled with the gift he got two of- a travel geotrax set with trains and animals.  We added some extra geotrax from cousin C's bin and he was set for a few hours.  We stayed until about five before heading home.  Big guy surprisingly was awake for the whole car ride- I think he was wired from so much fun.  UPon arriving home we did some nebulizing.  I know, he got sick that morning with a cough.  Then the child passed out!!!  Day one of present opening a definite success.
