This year Christmas was truly a wonderful time. For the past 3 years, it kind of has been a bit of a Debbie Downer, especially with my dad not having a job. However, God worked in a little extra Christmas miracle for us and my dad finally got a job!! So there was much to celebrate this year! I spent hours (and too much money) shopping this year. It was so fun to play Santa for Cohen! Even though in all reality he won't remember a thing from this Christmas, it was sure fun picking out the presents, wrapping them and then helping him open the up. Plus, little boy toys are getting to be a lot more fun.
We headed up to Goshen for our first road trip with little man. It just reminded me that my car won't last past one baby. Dear Lord was it packed! I mean, we had every nook and cranny packed with stuff. I don't know how my cousins did it with 2 in her little car for their first trip! But Cohen did really well in the car - slept the whole trip both there and back. There were a few scares, but I was very impressed with the little man.
Christmas Eve day was spent with Kurtis' family. We had a nice time over at Becky's place and Santa even came to visit! Sadly, we forgot our camera at my parent's house and a classic moment would happen as Cohen pulled Santa's beard. Of course he would! Then that we evening we went over to my Aunt's house, but Cohey was just a little too cranky. A good thing was that he slept from 9 until 730 on Christmas morning, not waking up once. Now that was a good Christmas present! My sister and brother in law came over all day Christmas Day and we spent the day with my family. Favorite gift from Nana and Papa - a firetruck he can ride when he gets bigger.Overall it was a really great holiday season. I'm looking forward to spending New Year's with my husband, little man and dog. I hope you all had a fabulous Holiday and I'm getting excited to see what's in store for 2011!
