Well, its over. And man, did my kids get a lot for Christmas. Spoiling is one of my true talents. Chandler recieved a good deal of the Star Wars universe, Battle Packs, the Imperial Shuttle and the toy I always wanted, the At-At. He received the Evolutions clone trooper set, Kit Fisto Starfighter and some other figures, too! He also got a few Avatar toys including the Aang launching Appa. No luck on the stuffed Appa, but I am holding out hope for birthdays. Graham got a wagon, some books and a lot off cars and trucks. He spent a lot of his time in that wagon on Christmas.
Christmas morning Chandler woke up nice and early and got right to business, checking to see if reindeer had eaten the carrots and if Santa had enjoyed his snack of milk and cookies. Uurp. Check. Then we tore open presents and started playing with the toys. Check. Karlas parents came for a visit and after they played with the kids, ate some lunch and played Garbage they went to visit Aunt Judy in Decatur.
The kids were in pretty good spirits for most of the day. Graham was getting over a nasty ear infection, so he was still a little crabby, but he did ok. Chandler had a growth on his neck, (turned out to be a swollen gland from an infection) and it hurts him a little, but antibiotics are on the case. We went to bed early and slept in late. Especially Chandler who slept until after 7:30am! He must of let himself relax after all the Santa anticipation. I'm still a little tired, but I have some time to catch up before next Christmas. Snore.
