Santa arrived at the Byrnes house, at approximately 12:36 am Christmas morning, according to my calculations.
Santa loved the cookies, but the consensus here is that the reindeer didn't care so much for the carrots.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care...
Charlotte loved her Radio Flyer push trike.
Beatrix loved her Barbie bike.
The girls opened their two wrapped gifts.
Beatrix was thrilled to get an American Girl Itty Bitty Baby...
...and a Crazy Fort.
Charlotte enjoyed her new books...
...and her Lego Duplo Tube Experiment Set. Santa was kind enough to set up a few examples of what you can make with the pieces, so she could immediately start playing with it.
Daddy got a panda bento box (and a few other things), and Charlotte recognized that her book had a panda on it too.
Mommy got a book about becoming a mindful parent, among a few other things.
After all the gifts were opened, and breakfast was eaten, Charlotte decided to sit by the fire.
And, of course, we got a photo together.
Omi came over, bearing gifts.
Omi got Beatrix a Baby Alive Baby All Gone . This toy is actually kinda neat, and Charlotte really enjoys it too. She also got her a Lego Duplo Zoo set.
Omi got Charlotte some English/German blocks and a Little People Noah's Ark.
Omi got both girls mittens and a hat. Beatrix chose the pink, and Charlotte got the purple by default.
Later that night, we went to Goosey & Popsey's house. Beatrix changed into her pj's like Emily's pj's.
And, one final photo with my mom (Goosey) and the girls.
What a blessed Christmas!
