Here they are waiting to come down the stairs on Christmas morning.
The only thing Hannah wanted for Christmas was a Barbie Jeep.
I've heard that Santa shops Craigslist too. Because there's no way he'd pay $250 for a new one to sit out in our garage. (If it ever gets out of our living room.)
The only thing that Houston wanted was a "CHOO CHOO" (pronounced "Cheeeeewwwww Cheewwwwww"). And although we kind of doubt that he made the "nice list" this year, his precious smile got him his first train (complete with remote controls).
Miss Macy got this sweet Baby Doll and doll buggy. (Along with other stuff - all of which she ignored for this doll and buggy.)
Apparently it's not just for dolls.
Aidan got a rather ghetto, yet AWESOME gift - PVC Pipe! This kid LOVES to build and invent, so Santa was able to pick up 60 feet of pipe and two dozen assorted connectors for right around 5 bucks! He LOVES them! In fact, ALL the kids love them! SCORE! for a cool, cheap gift!
Hootie also got a slide. And he found a lot of different ways to slide down it.
He wasn't the only one who enjoyed the slide.

Our little Rockstar.
What a fun morning!
Opening stockings...

(Notice that Santa is safely buckled up. But the baby is recklessly standing in the back of the jeep as she hitches a ride.)
Macy and Daddy opening gifts at Nana's house tonight.
Okay, my crazy brother and sweet sis-in-law got one of the kids this weird toy. They LOVE LOVE LOVE it. It's the oddest toy I've seen - it's made of rubber and they sit on it and jump and bounce like crazy. And Macy jumping on it with her shades on is just too good.
Macy decided that she'd open all the adults gifts as well. Of course since my family adores her they didn't mind the help one bit! This little girl has opened a lot of presents this month! Between her birthday and now Christmas, she's gotten good at ripping through some paper!

It's been a FUN Christmas this year! The kids are at awesome ages and it was so fun to see the wonder in their eyes. I wish I could figure out how to upload video, because Macy just squealed and screamed when she saw what Santa had brought her. She absolutely AMAZES us everyday how "NORMAL" she is - she's just like any regular kiddo - not one who has only been in our country for 7 weeks! How thankful we are that we haven't had any difficult behavior or attachment issues out of her. She's just great! And I really think she enjoyed her first Christmas. Hope you did too!
I love that picture of Hannah and Macy in the car - Hannah looks like a little elf with her ear sticking out!
