Christmas 2011~
So Oni celebrated his 2nd Christmas~ He woke up in a great mood and had a great day! We opened one present before the family came over and he was already busy playing with his new toy. I spent most of the morning cooking with MIL and was pretty tired by the time it was time to eat! But then came the best part of the day: opening presents! I helped Oni open up all of his gifts as he continually yelled out "WOOOOW!" It was awesome to see and it made me a little sad to realize how much he's grown in the past year. Last Christmas he wasn't even crawling and was miserable due to his eczema and this year he's running around, jumping, yelling out random words and making our hearts melt...
So, as expected, he received way too many toys for Christmas! Our living room looks like a daycare and all of the gifts haven't even been taken out of the box yet. *sigh* I keep saying we need a bigger place, but that just means we'll accumulate more stuff! We need to pack away some things, but what? It's so hard to choose and actually do. The problem is a few of his toys are such large items it overwhelms the room. I guess we'll figure it out somehow...
With the family over, it was nice to see Oni interact with everyone... He had a blast with the company and was non-stop all day... We ended up going over to Nancy's later in the day and he played even more over there... He fell in love with this castle that Sophia had and would not get out of it!
Here is Oni with his new easel! Fred set it up Christmas Eve and when he came down Christmas morning he walked around and then when he spotted it, all we heard was "WOOOAAAHHHHHH!" It was so cute! A big thank you to Uncle Ed!
Here are a few more memories made~
All in all it was a great day and I received a few gifts myself! Freddie got me an electric toothbrush - yes, totally not romantic at all, but something I did need replaced. He also got me a book/DVD set to learn VBA/Macros... It is something I would like to learn more about since I am quite elementary in its skill set, but it was not a cool gift! My fav gift was the new lens I got for my DSLR. Now I can take more pics of Oni!!!
