This Christmas season was crazy busy but so much fun! We didn't get to do all the things I had planned but lets face it we have three month old, I just went back to work, and then we all got sick. Life happens.
We introduced the Elf on the Shelf this year (man is that a lot of work). Jackson was so cute everyday, "where the elf? Where is he? Oh he move!!" "There he is!"Our elf was really boring this year and often forgot to move to a new hiding place but luckily Jackson didn't mind. Jackson named him "Blue" by the way.
We went to Disney the first weekend for Mickey's Christmas! This needs a separate post all on its own!
We decorated cookies with Jackson's best friend Emma. Still more eating than decorating :)
We went to see Santa, who apparently is a big scary man still to Jackson…maybe next year??
Look at his handsome bow tie made by mama :)
Brooklyn just looked extremely worried the whole time!
Before heading to mass we sprinkled reindeer food out in the front lawn. Holy cow I have to remember this for next year it was ADORABLE! Jackson loved it! He kept calling for the reindeer and throwing the food all over the lawn, it was seriously the sweetest thing ever. I should also mention he is way more into the reindeer than Santa.
Christmas eve we went to mass and actually made it through the entire service! Christmas miracle!! It helped we were in the gym and next to his best friend. I also had to bring a ton of snacks and toys. I should have brought wine ;) After mass we went to my parents to open gifts and have dinner with my brother's family.
Brooklyn pretty much slept through it.
Jackson was SOO good, it was past his bedtime and he just kept playing. This was probably one of his favorite gifts- cars.
That night we put the kids straight to bed since it was way past bedtime. Although we had cookies for Santa we didn't get to put them out, maybe next year. The elves got to go to bed pretty early since there were no presents to assemble this year which was nice I have to say!
