We had another fantastic Christmas with Brady- each one gets better and better! This year he understood more of what was going on, and he was very excited to get to spend some quality time with family.
Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Dustin, and Uncle Daniel traveled in to kick off Christmas on the 23rd. They came bearing gifts, cookies, and lots of food! On Christmas Eve morning, we went to visit two of Brady's favorite places: the car wash and Target. Ok, so Target isn't really a favorite, but he sure does like their popcorn! That evening, Uncle Mark joined us for a really yummy dinner. And we got a special surprise- an unexpected white Christmas!
Christmas morning was a blast, but Brady continued his trend of being painfully slow at opening gifts! I moved him along as best I could, but it was quite a challenge to get him to give up one toy to open another. But he had a great time and loves having some new toys to play with and books to read.
The following morning Brady was surprised to see that Nana, Pop Pop, and Aunt Casey had arrived during the night. Christmas, Round 2 was ready to begin, complete with more snow!
