Santa's Visit

Well the time has finally come for our annual trip home to spend the holidays with family. We have clothes in the suitcases and a backpack full of toys to keep Claire busy! It will be a long day of flying, but we are super super excited!
With this upcoming trip, we had a hard time deciding what was best to do about Santa's visit. So, after "writing him a letter and asking him to come early" we had a nice family Christmas together last weekend. I honestly had never seen Claire so hyper! She made cookies with Charlie and me and stayed up late waiting to try one before going to bed.
She woke up at her usual time (yes!) and rushed downstairs to see what Santa had brought!
That Santa had a hard task this year! A dollhouse for Claire and a Exersaucer for Grayson. I bet he worked on putting those together a looooong time!

They both got a few smaller items in their stockings too, and we gave Claire her birthday present early so she can enjoy it on the plane...a MobiGo. It is a gaming system by VTech and she looooves it! I never in my wildest dreams thought that she would learn how to play the games so quickly, but I guess kids are just wired to know technology now-a-days! Charlie had out his laptop, and I was using mine, and Claire had out her MobiGo and said, "look! we ALL have pooters now!!" Ha!
It is so fun to see Christmas through your children's eyes!
