Christmas Day

Christmas is seriously so much funner with kids!! Nixon definitely got SUPER spoiled this Christmas but he is SO worth it. It was so much fun to see him get excited with each new toy. He would open one and play with it and then open another and play with that one. He had to play with all of them. He would go from one to another and then back to one's he already had played with. If was a lot of fun watching him.

Here he is with his very own vacuum. He absolutely LOVES our vacuum so I saw this and had to get it for him. He carried it around with him for a while. It was cute!
Playing with his new little trucks we got him. He's starting to really love trucks!

Here he is in his super cute jammies with his new Vans on. HAHA. He loves shoes and carried them around with him for a while before we put them on. And he LOVED playing with all the boxes.
Daddy and Nixon on Christmas morning.
This is what Nic did a lot of the morning. He was in charge of putting all of Nixon's toys together. And I wasn't even thinking, but I wrapped every single gift not even realizing that Santa usually puts things together the night before and leaves them out unwrapped. But it's ok...at least Nixon didn't understand this year so I didn't bother unwrapping everything and doing it the right way. We'll leave that for next year.
Here is Nixon on his new horsey. He absolutely LOVES this!!! It bounces and spins and plays music and it also has interactive teaching games for the t.v. He knows how to get on and off of the horse all by himself.
Nic's showing off a couple of shirts that we got him.
I'm showing off the boots and a couple of shirts that Nic got me. Thanks babe!

After we did our own thing in the morning, we headed over to my mom and dad's house for the rest of the day and this is the ONLY picture I got while we were there. I have no idea why I didn't take more pictures but oh well. Nixon got this super cute beanie and he kept trying to take it off so that's why Nic is holding his hands down so we could get a picture of it. We opened presents and then ate lunch. My dad made his famous Enchiladas and they were absolutely DELICIOUS!!! We ate so much!!! We then headed over to see Grandma Evans and then went back to my mom and dad's and all took naps. Nic and I slept for 2 hours and Nixon took a much needed 3 hour nap! It was a very fun filled day and a great Christmas.
We had a wonderful Christmas this year spent with our family. We ate a TON of good food, played games, hung out with family, watched Nixon enjoy all his new toys and loved watching him play with his cousins. He LOVES them and is VERY entertained when he's with them because there is never a dull moment when they are around. It was so much fun watching Nixon on his very first Christmas. I'm so excited for all the rest to come. Thanks to all of our family for making it so special!!
