Christmas at Home




 It was nice to come home to presents under our Christmas tree and two happy doggies from daycare (one of which gave us the cold shoulder for two days). I couldn't get a good picture of Brock by the Christmas tree (and trust me, I tried for the entire month of December), so Oscar will be your model this year.
First we opened our stockings. I think the boys understood a little more this year and dug right in there for their treats! It took Brock a little longer to figure it out, but eventually he got it.
Bubble Bath!!
Some presents he needed a little help with, especially when Mommy tied a nice ribbon around it!
But then some he wasn't feeling at all....
Planking!! 
Some presents he wanted to play with right then and there - even when the toy was still in the box!!
Little People Farm set from Great-Aunt Carol and Great-Uncle Jeff!!
His first Christmas may have been a little overwhelming (also after doing it in North Carolina), so we continued another day.....
Disney Planes Ride-On toy with moving propeller and lights
All in all, it was a wonderful holiday that we'll always remember. Even though Brock may have not understood everything, he did show signs of excitement with little things over the holiday season and that made it worth it - even with all the redirecting to get him not to eat the ornaments off the tree! Every morning Brock and I would come downstairs and turn on the Christmas lights together and I will miss seeing his eyes light up at the count of three! Thank you to everyone who made Brock's first Christmas a very happy one! He is one blessed little boy.
