Then, after the meal came the real festivities for Andrew...the opening of the presents. Andrew was able to rip open the wrapping paper pretty well except for some difficult taping or ribbon areas. But it's so much different than last year where he wasn't all that into it. But this year, he knew so much more. He knows that he rips open the paper to get to something good. However, the problem was that he would open one present and want to play with it immediately and not realize he has even more presents to open (not totally a bad thing though). Andrew received wonderful gifts and was in seventh heaven playing with all his new presents--and some presents that weren't his. Like he didn't have enough! But he loved playing with David's Barack Obama talking bobblehead. He would crack up laughing everytime Barack talked. Interesting. Daddy and Mommy got really nice gifts as well. Thanks, everyone, for your thoughtfulness and generosity!!
Then during Andrew's nap, the adults also played with some of our new toys. We played the new (more current and not so outdated) version of Taboo that Mary Ann got us as well as the Scattergories that we gave to David and Dina. I am surprised that our laughter didn't wake Andrew up! Then, we just hung out with the family for a while before we headed home. We still had to pack and get ready for our road trip to San Antonio.
But Andrew seemed to have a great day between playing with all the family and all the toys. There definitely wasn't a lack of attention and playmates for our little angel. If today was any indication of how things were going to go this holiday season, Andrew was going to have the best yuletide ever! Thank you again for a wonderful day, everyone! We love you all very much!
