Christmas

This post will be more of a photo dump with little commentary.

Our Christmas was amazing! We were lucky with Wes having Saturday and Sunday off!!! So we all got to be together and soaked it up. I woke up bright and early Sunday to start cooking Christmas breakfast. Once the little man woke up we enjoyed our nice meal together before opening gifts. (Check out Aiden's Christmas Eve pjs he got.--One of the traditions I started this year)

Which Aiden ran into the living room in amazement of all the gifts! Let me tell you this kid was awesome at removing wrapping paper, and of course he had to sit in my lap the whole time. I didn't mind one bit! :-)

We started by letting Murph get his stocking first and little man knew which one to pick. Go Aiden! Santa must have noticed how good Murph is with Aiden because he got TWO treats! One lucky dog!

Next was Aiden's turn. Let the wrapping paper in the air begin...This is one little blessed boy! To everyone who sent him a gift THANK YOU! You are so special and loved.

Aftermath. Aiden had to finish the rest of his breakfast (See Murph being all buddy buddy with him. Geez.)

As you can see he loved his gift from Santa. Biggest smiles and went wild outside.

Next was Wes' turn. I didn't get any pictures because I was busy opening the boxes for Aiden so he could play. But I managed to get a few surprises that he didn't know about. I rock! :-) He got a few things from Banana Republic, a new Braves hat and shirt, and my fav his "Lucky Penny" keychain. There are two pennies on it. One with our anniversary year with "A&W" and "Jul 28" and the other Aiden's birth year with "Aiden" and "Feb 5" on it. Now he carries that luck around with him all day (and he won't ever forget the important dates! haha)

Lastly it was my turn. Mine wasn't really I surprise because I knew what I was getting...but that doesn't mean I wasn't BEYOND excited! My gift to open was stackable rings. One with a pearl stone on it and the other with an Amethyst stone and "Aiden" stamped on it. My other gift is fun. Next month we are having a day date without Aiden so we can go pick me out new glasses!!! YAH! Then go see a movie and lunch together. Perfect!

Overwelmed with all the love. I hope everyone else had as GREAT of a Christmas as the Lamberts household had.

That afternoon I decided this was also something we will do in the Lambert household after Christmas. Declutter! Aiden already had tons of toys and now we just got even more. So after each Christmas we are going threw all the toys to pick out the ones that are not played with as much and donating them. I kept a few of his "baby" toys but I knew there were several he's never touched before. I basically was able to fill a huge box and trust me Aiden still has TONS. GEEZ. But why should we hold onto unloved toys when there are kids out there that don't even have toys to play with. Aiden might have not known what I was doing but eventually I hope he learns and appreciates that he even got a chance to play with those toys in the first place.
