Gaven’s First Christmas

On Christmas eve, Gaven can’t wait to see what’s in his stocking!

He found Sophie! He left Sophie in Vegas. Santa brought it back for him. Flirt male

We also made Gaven his first Christmas ornament. We bought this Babyprint Holiday Ornament Kit. We got ours from landofnod.com. The kit arrived a little late, so we didn’t get to make it till Christmas eve. The plan was to make the tiny handprint of his…

But then, he would dig his fingers onto the clay each time we placed his hand on it. After several attempts, we still couldn’t get a normal looking handprint. We then decided to make his footprint instead. Not pictured, sadly. I just realized we didn’t take a picture of the finished product! The ornament is now sitting safely in a box along with all other Christmas décor up in the attic. John just told me that there is no way he is going to climb up to the attic to get the ornament for me to take a picture so I can post it on my blog. Too bad… Shiftyblame it on him.

Anywhoo… the morning of Christmas, we had our gift opening session, just the 3 of us.

At the rate he is going, our gift opening session lasted 3 hours. Flirt male

Then the session continued at Debbie’s house. We headed over there around 3pm for dinner and the 2nd round of opening gifts with Grandparents and cousins.
