Beach Baby Johnson: Christmas at Home!

Merry Christmas Everybody!!

I can't say that Wesley really understood Christmas this year. That didn't mean he didn't have tons of fun and enjoy everything about it. He was great about the Christmas Tree and understood that he shouldn't touch the ornaments. He would point to a few of them and call them by name; we had a few dogs on the tree! He was enamoured by the lights not just on the tree but on the neighborhood houses. Mrs. Sheila had a tree decorated on their front porch that we would have to stop at each night to touch and take in. I think he will REALLY enjoy Christmas next year...this year was the joy for Mommy and Daddy!!!

We tried hard to tell Santa not to bring too much...Daddy was much better about that than Mommy. He has way too many toys as it stands but it wasn't stopping Mommy! Spoiled, yes! He wasn't much in to opening the gifts which we thought he would enjoy. It was a lot of fun for us, though and I can't wait until next year.

His big gift was his new chair. The unfortunate part and as you can tell from the photos is that he had a very rough morning with his congestion/throwing up. He started in the PJ's that my sister made for him in the first photo but they were the first of four by the time we got through the morning. He had three sets of Christmas pajamas and went through all of them, plus one. His new chair was even washed and dried (cushions come out) before Mimi and Pops woke up. Keep in mind Wesley wakes up no later than 6am. We managed through it and had a great Christmas morning. Mommy had an L.L. Bean Christmas with some gorgeous new boots. Daddy's big gift was his new tablet.

We were also excited to have Mimi and Pops come down Christmas Eve to spend the holiday with us! As you can see in the pictures, Wesley was as happy as we were to have them.

For Christmas Dinner we invited Vicky and Johan, Chris' sister and brother in law for dinner. They spoiled Wesley rotten with Christmas gifts!!! They are also a ton of fun to be around. I wish I had more photos of their visit...the Stuffed Rockfish seemed to make the cut instead. What an awesome dinner by Chef Chris. I think he may have started a tradition...who wants to come for Christmas Dinner next year???
