Christmas!

Nate was so much fun during Christmas this year! It was so fun to see him start to get excited about all the Christmas activities.

Here he is showing off all of his Christmas excitement. I'm not sure what happened with the sound but if you turn up the volume all the way, you can barely hear it.   

After a month of practicing his "Ho, Ho, Ho", he got to meet the real Santa...he didn't really like him.

I wish I could say that our whole Christmas week was wonderful but unfortunately we had a pretty terrible Christmas Eve. Our main drain in our laundry/storage room backed up and flooded part of our basement. Since there were no plumbers open on Christmas Eve, Todd and his dad tried to fix the drain on their own. Something went wrong and we had an explosion of sewer waste. Every surface of this room was covered in nasty...stuff. It took me 2 solid days of sanitizing EVERYTHING to feel like I didn't want to move. 

That's right - every can of food and box of cereal got bleached at least twice. It took FOREVER!

Since our house was kind of a nightmare and smelled terrible, we stayed up at Todd's parents' house on Christmas Eve. 
Here is Nate opening presents on Christmas morning! Nate got totally spoiled (as usual) with lots of toys, books, and clothes. These pictures are of the only 2 presents Nate opened on his own. I opened all the others :)



My family came down later in the morning and we enjoyed more great presents and a yummy lunch. It was a great way to spend Christmas!

Todd's been dying to take Nate sledding for weeks now. He finally got his wish on Christmas afternoon and they both had a blast :)
