How about a Christmas update! Christmas was a blur because of the twins arrival but it was a fun time. Darrian was SO into it this year. He cried when we had to take the tree down. Santa was nice to threaten with, I kind of miss him. Just kidding (kinda). For me Christmas still feels odd because we haven't found the same tradition year after year... but we will. I am finding new tradition in our family, and the kids.
Darrian's school had a Christmas party where the parents were invited and I went. (less than a week after the twins were here) I was not going to miss his first school party, and the teacher promised songs. Darrian had been singing Jingle Bells and We Wish You A Merry Christmas for weeks beforehand around the house. However, when showtime came they didn't say that Santa would be in the room. Darrian likes Santa from afar although this year he did much better with him. When he showed up in the room though Darrian did not sing once and kept his eye on Santa the whole time. I have video it was pretty funny and I will have to upload it here soon. Leading up to Christmas we had Chris and Julie and Family over Christmas Eve, and then I took Darrian out with Auntie Devyn to go look at Christmas lights. He really loved that. We decorated cookies, and then went to bed. Christmas morning still doesn't start till 8 am here (nice) so we slept in (yea right) and Darrian opened his presents. He loved them all. He got a new jeep from Grandma, trains, and a tag reader.Auntie Devyn got him this book I LOVE that tells a story about Darrian and has Auntie Devyn in it. I then cooked Christmas dinner, that was not so smart. Trying to cook dinner with newborn twins... it turned out good but not worth the work really. Next year I won't be doing that.
Here are some pictures from Christmas...
