Christmas morning at home

And though all still very tired from last night, we were up a bit later than usual (though not too much) to enjoy all the surprises that Santa left.

A loop-de-loop that Matteo so requested (and here I thought the car days were moving behind us).



And though we have numerous ride-ons, Chloe May absolutely loves this car - she was always trying to sit in another boy's at soccer this past Fall! And with us being such outdoor people, I know this car is going to get many miles - it already has inside the house.

And though I thought this to be babyish - a few people advised that the children would love it - - - and well I too sit there amazed by it, it's very relaxing to just watch the balls roll and pop, roll and pop (though I wish it were not SO loud!).

Matteo got his 48 piece US puzzle that he has been asking for since JUNE - though he does it way to quickly, I think our Matteo is not challenged enough and thus needs 100 piece puzzles for the future.

Chloe May's dolly finally got a carriage - though to be honest, Chloe must think the carriage is for herself, because she is always asking me to push her in it.


Chloe May took some time out for breakfast (not so much Matteo)


And my best present:
