Christmas with a 2-year-old..need I say more? Bix finally got the idea behind Santa this year and was very excited that he was coming to visit. He had seen some trucks in a store about 3 week prior to the big day...there was a lot of crying when we had to leave the store without them...and a few days after, a lady at the post office asked Bix what Santa was going to bring him. He quickly replied "trash truck car carrier both". To which I replied "Santa only brings one gift to each child". This did not stick and Bix was insistent that Santa would come through for him, bringing him both the trash truck and car carrier. Well, thanks to Auntie Mari, both trucks were present and accounted for Christmas morning. Bix was overjoyed and had the biggest smile on his face...after both were opened and revealed of course.
There was fun to be had by all. Nana Gwen and Grandad Oscar came up and Nana and Grandad were here too. We opened a few gifts, played with a few gifts, then opened some more. Bix was a great help at distributing gifts to their appropriate recipients. Everyone had a great time and it was so special to have 4 generations in the house celebrating together. We can't wait for next year!
