I unfortunately had to work on Christmas Eve so I didn't get home until supper time. Mason had spent the day with Daddy & it sounds like they had a fun day together. We ate supper & then afterwards we gathered by the Christmas tree to let Mason open one gift.
This is going to be a yearly tradition that I am starting. Every Christmas Eve I am going to let Mason open one gift which will contain new jammies, a book or movie to read/watch that evening & some snacky items to eat while watching the movie.
Since he is too young to watch holiday movies or eat late-night snacks I decided to get him the Twas the Night Before Christmas book instead to read to him at bed-time. As you can see, he was super happy about a) opening a gift b) getting new jammies & c) getting a new book!
After his gift was opened, it was bath-time & then he got his new jammies on & came downstairs to show them off to Daddy:
He is such a little ham :)
Mase & I headed upstairs to his room for bed & I read him his new book as well as the Christmas story from his little bible. We talked about the birth of baby Jesus & how tomorrow we would be celebrating his birthday & how Santa would be stopping by & that we would have gifts to open in the morning. Not sure if he understood anything other than "opening presents" but I told him none the less.
After Mase went to bed, then "Santa" came & delivered all the presents & neatly arranged them under the Christmas tree. From the looks of it, someone had been a VERY good boy this year!
Bubba made sure to keep a watchful eye so that nobody harmed the gifts :)
I spent the rest of the evening making the egg bake & getting the caramel rolls put together for the morning & then around midnight I finally made it to bed.
I am so excited for Mase to wake up in the morning & see all his gifts!!
