Merry Christmas! - Part 1 - At Home

Merry Christmas!
Jeramy and I went upstairs to wake Eli around 7am so he could see what Santa brought him.
We were heading to Magnolia soon after to Kitty Kat MawMaw's house to have Christmas with Nanna and family.
As soon as we reached the stairs Eli spotted his Santa Surprises down below. Once we let him go from the stairs, he ran for his new slide.
He was really excited about his new wagon, too!
He went back and forth between the slide and the wagon. He couldn't decide which was best. He loved the steering wheel on the slide... his own ship to steer.

Eli and his Daddy.... two peas in a pod!
After Eli explored his Santa gifts, we headed to Magnolia for Nanna and family. Around 5pm, we headed home for Eli to open his gifts from Mommy and Daddy. He even had a wrapped gift under the tree that Rudolph left for him! It was a Rudolph puppet book!
Eli learned how to open gifts and loved tearing the paper off one piece at a time.
His book from Rudolph....
opening a gift from Momma and Daddy
Time to explore with crayons!
Eli opened up the toddler crayons (in little ball capsules) and was so excited!

We really enjoyed the holiday with Eli. Last year he was barely 12 weeks old so there wasn't must to watch him do last year. This year was a completely different story. We loved watching him interact with everyone, open gifts, and run around all over the place.
Eli is one cute little "dude" as Grams calls him.
He is my special boy and I have learned and grown so much with him.
