Ben woke us up at 7 am on Christmas morning. OK, it could have been worse, but we didn't go to bed until 1 am the night before. During the night, Santa had arrived and the milk & cookies were gone. It looked like the reindeer had eaten the spinach too. Ben had left Santa a note & Santa wrote back and said thank you for the refreshments
Ben had a pile of presents. He had a sled, a pair of snow gloves, a game for his DS, new markers, a science kit, a DVD and a Bakugan ball
Maggie also had a sled and snow gloves, a Leapster with a new game for it, new sheets for her bed, new shoes and a DVD
Ben decided he was going to raid his stocking first
Then he opened all his presents from Santa
The noise and excitement finally roused Maggie out of bed. I suspect that what she really wants from Santa is more sleep....
It took Maggie ages before she wanted to move off my lap and open her presents. She does not have any inkling of the excitement of Christmas morning. She must be the only child in the Universe that doesn't come rushing downstairs and start opening things!!!!
Even in this picture, she still looks half asleep!!!! As usual, Ben had enough excitement for the pair of them and overwhelmed Maggie no matter how hard we tried to tone him down.
Luckily, they survived present opening and Ben declared it the best Christmas ever. I was pleasantly surprised because they didn't get anything like the mountain of presents that they usually get. It gets harder every year to find things they would like
