Christmas Day

Our first Christmas with the boys last year (at about 5 1/2 months old) was very special.  But, this year, at almost 1 1/2 years old, it was a blast watching them run around, rip wrapping paper off presents, and playing with their new toys!  We spent Christmas Day at home with all of our family this year and it was wonderful!  Here are a bunch of pictures from our second Christmas with the boys...

Christmas morning...Bryce spots all the pretty boxes under the tree!


"Where do I begin?"


"This one looks good!"


Benjamin joins in...


"Oh no, there's mom with her camera."


The unwrapping begins!



A big present from Santa...


Dad starts pouring in the plastic balls...


There goes our living room...


Two cute little bum bums covered with snowmen...this year, we decided Christmas would be pajama day for the boys!


One escaping!


One by one, the balls get thrown out...


Judging by his face, I think Bryce was very excited about his new Doodle Pro...


Waiting patiently for daddy to take out the Doodle Pros out of their boxes...


An artist is born...


"If you're happy and you know it, raise your foot!" :)


Daddy got each of them a Southwest Airlines toy airplane...but, of course, one wanted the other's plane, even though they were EXACTLY the same!


Another "big" (i.e. oversized) present...


Our living room is feeling smaller by the minute...


But, at least the boys are having fun! :)


"Let's bring some toys into the tunnel!"



Back to the ball house!  It looks like there's one ball in there that doesn't belong...


So many new toys, and we're not even done opening all the presents!


Omas, opas, aunts, uncles, and cousins start to arrive...


More presents to open!  William assigns himself the job of handing out the presents to everyone...


As the big presents continue to pile up, our living room continues to get smaller and smaller...


Perhaps, we need to screw this to the wall!


"I didn't do it!"


Baby got some new house shoes...



There's that sweet Bryce smile I love so much!


He's so silly!


Claire looking at her new Barbie book with her "Nanna"...


That doesn't look like a basketball entering the basket...


Our future Tar Heel in action...


The boys love their new ball popper...


Especially the air that blows out of it!


Benjamin reading his new book with Aunt Lizzy and mommy...


Bryce helps daddy assemble his new Radio Flyer car...


He couldn't wait to sit in it!


I don't think it's ready, Bryce...


Benjamin couldn't wait either...


"Isn't this thing supposed to roll around or something?"


Bryce checking out his new steering wheel...


One car assembled...one more to go!  Thank goodness, we don't have triplets!


I guess this drinking and driving is okay...


"Scoot over!  Daddy is still working on my car!"


Awwwww! :)


Benjamin starts falling out of the car...apparently, it's not made for two!


Bryce decides to help Gabrielle push his brother around...


"Are you done yet, daddy?"


Yay!  The boys checking out their new rides...


These are not bumper cars! (exclaims mommy)


"Wanna trade?"


Happy little faces :)


We should change the plates to say FLYER 1 and FLYER 2!
