What a wonderful time we had for Avery's first Christmas. It took us about half of the day to get through all of the presents (the two boys got a little bit spoiled this year) and the other half to digest all of the food we ate!
Truman was very excited to see that Santa brought him exactly what he asked for, an apple! He said that next year he will ask for a melon. Avery asked for a 50" LCD flat screen television and was incredibly angry when he didn't see it under the tree. He decided to punish us for Santa's mistake and hasn't slept very well for the last three days. In all honesty, I think it's because there has been so much excitement and commotion. The little guy doesn't want to sleep because he's afraid he will miss out on some action.
As per our annual tradition, we stayed in Ajax from Christmas Eve until Boxing Day, and were able to relax and truly enjoyed spending time with family. Of course we were missing the South Carolina clan, but got to catch up briefly with a phone call on Christmas Day.
Boxing Day, we spent the evening at Wanda and David's. We were once again treated to an amazing dinner which Wanda made. Avery was as well behaved as a baby can be on about half as much sleep as he should be getting. Unfortunately, we were having such a nice time that we missed Avery's regular bedtime again, which lead to a difficult night. We are hoping that since the holidays are now over, we can get back into a scheduled routine. And next week we start the dreaded sleep training.
