Santa pushed through coronavirus and made a visit to Walnut Lane. The kids were very anxious and did not like Daddy slowing them down from being able to go downstairs to see what was under the tree. Alex got his skateboard, Gemma got her LOL house, and Lucy was doubly excited to see that Santa left her “real jewelry and a jewelry box.” So many cool gifts were opened...Lucy was a fan of opening her stocking gifts and left a nice mess in her wake. Mommy and Gemma both got green boxes from Daddy. Gem got her very first diamond necklace and she was very proud that she is officially comparing jewels with Mommy...“As I get bigger the diamonds get bigger too, right?” Alex was really excited to give Mommy her present that was handcrafted.
Off to Beeps and Grandpa’s for the rest of the day for more celebration and gift exchanging. We ended up having too many snacks and way too much alcohol so we nixed brunch this year. Gemma got to give Beeps her very own green box to open, which pleased her greatly. Nowhere else to go this evening so we just had a marathon of a day opening presents, putting a dent in the wine, napping, and sticking around for dinner, and drinking more wine. Mommy eventually had to take a breather on the floor. Christmas!
