First Christmas

December 27, 2006 by dailygnome 1 Comment


He’s always loved a good party and Christmas this year was no exception. The fun started Thursday night when he experienced his first sleepover without the parents in tow. We spent the night downtown to celebrate Jason’s birthday and C stayed with G&G Petrie. Although it was past his bedtime, once he heard the doorbell ring and the sound of corks popping downstairs, he insisted on joining in the late night soiree that was happening without him. Sleep can wait when there’s a party going on.

The merriment continued through the weekend up until Christmas night at my parents. It involved a lot of present opening (with three sets of grandparents, four aunts and four uncles, he had a lot of unwrapping to do!), wonderful meals, music, much laughter and way too many cookies. Feliz Navidad!
