Christmas 2010

We got through all of our Christmases in about 2 days which was great!  The weather was good for traveling and Wyatt has been busy playing with his new toys!

We talked a lot about Santa and Baby Jesus leading up to Christmas.  We left our cookies and milk for Santa the night before but when Christmas morning arrived, I think Wyatt was a little taken aback that Santa actually got in the house and left presents!  He did not run to the tree and start playing with his toys, he stood back and looked worried - well maybe his 4th Christmas will be the one he acts like a normal kid!

 Sorry, I couldn't get this picture to rotate.  Santa did bring a big tractor and wagon for Wyatt (this one was green, but we are not particular about tractor color).  Wyatt also got a sled, it has been put to good use already - stay tuned for a future blog update featuring the sled!

 We have to get up early at home so we can open our gifts before Derek goes out to chore and then meet Wyatt and I at his parents house for breakfast and presents.  With all 3 grand kids there, it is a bit of a zoo but that was my favorite part of going to my Grandparents for Christmas growing up!  Wyatt does want to try on most clothing items he opens. 

Christmas Eve is spend at Derek's Grandma Vesta's house.  Here she is with the Great-Grand kids!

 A much calmer present opening ensues at my parents' house.  Wyatt is basically the center of attention!

 Wyatt enjoying his gift from my parents, a travel DVD player.  I am hoping this makes the 3 hour car rides to Tipton a bit more quiet! 

 Trying to take a nice picture of Wyatt by the tree, looked good with the lights!

After a day with my parents, which means no nap, Wyatt literally crashed and burned in the middle of the floor.  Dad said one minute he was playing with his cars, the next he was fast asleep!
