Christmas Day

Christmas morning's favorite gift still stands - Cheetos.  =)  My guess is that it will be a breakfast tradition for years to come...

Luca's first Christmas!  He was all about pulling his gift out of his stocking.

Matteo was very "helpful" with all of Luca's presents.

And Luca was very happy with his new squishy ball.  What a face!!

Sebastian got a new writing workbook, which he immediately wanted to stop opening gifts and sit down to work on it.

Matteo was soooooo excited to get his penguin.  Our kids have never been ones to ask for things at stores, but the first time we went to Sea World he saw this little guy and he did not want to let go of it.  He wanted to buy it, but we said no because that would mean having to buy the other three kids with us something too.  But "santa" snuck back to the Sea World store and bought it for him. =)

Loving on his new penguin.

Luca was very interested in all the paper and his brother's gifts too.

The cookie set was a big hit with Matteo.

New planets for his room!  I can't get over how grown up he looks here!

The last Santa gift was a new rock wall for the swing set outside.

Playing with some of the new toys.

Luca went from crawling to cruising the furniture in less than two weeks.  Ooiiy.

These blocks are super cool.

We headed over to Orlando for Christmas with Paul's family and the boys opened more gifts.

Luca is finally warming up to Uncle Corey.

Playing new games.

Luca's new octopus toy.

He loves Aunt Sarah!

Christmas dinner.

And hopefully the tradition begins soon - the kids helping/cleaning up dinner after Christmas!  Tyler was a great helper!
