Christmas Morning


Things I want to remember: 

Noah sweetly waking up Gage in the morning. In a whisper, "Gagey, Gagey! wake up! its Christmas!" It took a good 10 minutes until Gage said "I know!" and jumped out of bed.
Gage's rooster hair
Mismatched jammies
The gasps and wide eyes for toys they loved
Skyping with G and G
The smell of cinnamon and oranges
Cracking pistachios like my mom
Gage sang 'Santa Claus is coming to town' over and over and over. 'to town!'
Noah's 'Twas the night before Christmas'
The rice pudding was delicious
Gage loved Noah's present to him and wore it for the next 3 days. 
Gage's smile, squeals, and hugs when Noah opened his brother-present.
Dave's sneaky present to me. 
Noah reading 
and reading 
and reading.

I love your table runner...did you make that? So cute. And I am SO EXCITED you are having a girl! That is so great. Can't wait to see her. She is a lucky baby girl!

I love peeking in at your Christmas morning. You know I love hearing about different family traditions! The rice pudding stuff looks yum. The boys look super excited too. My fave was seeing how happy Dave was at iFLY. That place looks amaze.com...Maybe I will have to copy cat your idea for Blake's Bday.

Great pix! (Now we just need our fancy flashes/diffusers!)
