Brett and Emma's first Chrismukkah!

Even though it is already mid-January...I thought I would share Brett and Emma's first Chrismukkah :)

I was an awful momtographer on Christmas. I was having so much fun with my family that I only got a few pictures. 

                                    On Chrismtas Eve, Brian insisted on making cookies for Santa. 

 Making cookies hasn't exactly been a hobby of mine since I was diagnosed with celiac disease. Brian was pretty excited, though. It looks like Santa ate quite a few cookies!! 

The next morning Brett and Emma woke us up bright and early because they wanted to open presents! (Well, I am assuming that's why they were up so early!!)

Hanging out by the tree.

Hey mom, can I eat this?

Brian decided that Brett and Emma would open his gifts first. Two words: Big Mistake!

Gerber cheese puffy things...my favorite! 

Once these were opened, we had to hide them in another room and coddle B&E who were in tears because they couldn't eat their favorite snack at 7:00AM. I am not sure what is in those things but I swear it's baby crack! 

And then finally they were on to other things...

This is OK. Where are my cheese puffs?

Did somebody say cheese puffs?

Mommy, I like this one!

Presents for Emma!

We helped Brett and Emma unwrap presents for a little while and then I gave Brian his gift...

Who is excited?

He got a PS3! I know he loves it because he has a bromance date every night at 9:30 with his boyfriends :) Look for PAPAbox on Modern Warfare 3! 

When our family came over just a little while later, Brett and Emma got to open even more presents!!  

We had a great Chrismukkah and feel truly blessed for all the friends and family we were able to spend time with over the holidays!
