Here are some moments from our Christmas at home in Idaho at my mom's. It was so nice to have Andrew on Christmas morning again...not having him last year was the worst. He got everything on his list-he made it easy for me by not asking for much. All he wanted was a dog pillow pet-he named him Bagel, how cute is that?, and an Ipod. Now, there was no way I was going to buy a 6 year old an ACTUAL Ipod, but he didn't seem to to notice the difference in his bargain MP3 player. He has always been very into music. I think he gets that from me. lol My niece Rylee also got an MP3 player and the two of them proceeded to ignore the rest of us and talk to each other in loud voices over their music for the rest of the vacation. The MP3 players had to be limited pretty quickly! All in all it was a nice Christmas. As always I had to hurry home too quickly, one to check in on crazy kittens bent on destroying my house, and two because Andrew was scheduled to spend the remainder of the holiday with his other parental unit. Sigh...only 12 more shopping months til next Christmas!
NOTE: Andrew's eye looks freakish and deformed in some of the pics because he got two lovely STYES on his left eye on Christmas Eve. Poor kid! Luckily, they cleared up within a couple of days.
