In the evening on Christmas Eve Joshua's family came over to celebrate. We have a tradition of eating breakfast for dinner, and I love that. It's so yummy! I was trying to be flexible and keep James up a little later than normal so he could open his presents from Joshua's family. He only lasted till about 7:30. He was a tired little guy. But he did open his presents from Mimi, his great grandma.
Christmas morning after James nursed we let him open his stocking, that way he could play with that stuff while I fixed his food. All of his other presents were sitting out and he wanted to get into them so bad! It was cute.
After James ate breakfast we opened presents with him. We had to break up his present opening because he got tired and needed his morning nap. He got so many good presents from his grandma and grandpa, Joshua's parents.
After we finished opening presents with Joshua's parents we went to my grandparents house. We enjoyed a yummy lunch of prime rib, twice baked potatoes, green bean casserole, sunday salad, yeast rolls, and mema's chocolate cake. We always have the same exact meal every year. I love it. It's probably my favorite part of the day! James was happy throughout the day, but was over opening presents, so he didn't help open anything.
Christmas night Joshua's family got together again, and yes we were expected to be there. We had another meal of prime rib. We get almost the same exact meal twice in one day. Overall Christmas was a success! It was fun to watch James experience everything. I know that it was hard on him to be passed around so much and have his schedule messed up by all the gatherings. But he did so good!
