Christmas Eve

I don't know what I was thinking but I totally forgot to post our Christmas Eve dinner with the Hannon's. We always spend Christmas Eve with Nanny and Papa and the rest of the Hannon clan. We always have dinner, read the REAL Christmas story then open presents. Here are some pictures from that night.

Well this one is of Hayden Christmas Eve morning.

Christmas Morning

I think Carey and I were more excited on Christmas morning than Hayden was but our little man was very happy with his Mickey Mouse Clubhouse ball pit. He really likes playing with all his new balls. In fact, we couldn't hardly get him to look at his other presents for the ball pit. Here are some pictures from Hayden Bruce's first Christmas morning.

Wow!!! Look at all those balls.

Woop there getting out.

Look at these balls.

He finally discovered there were other presents.

It's hippos for bath time.

Christmas morning was so special at our house and Hayden has thoroughly enjoyed his ball pit. It is more like his little club house that everything migrates into. We have figured out that if something is missing go look in the ball pit first.

Hannon's Christmas Morning Breakfast

Since Carey and I have been married we have always gone over on Christmas morning and had breakfast and opened presents with Mom, Dad and Evan. Hayden got to enjoy his first biscuit and chocolate gravy and it is safe to say that he loved it. After a good ole breakfast we all headed to the living room to open presents and this year the focus was totally on Hayden, of course.

Paw Rick had to help him get started opening his present but he just couldn't let go of his remote yet.

And he's off......

Now it's time to jump on top.

Hurry Paw Rick.

He got his very first piano.

You arrange the blocks on top to create different sound.

Daddy you look funny.

Hayden got finished opening his second present and I helped him get his goodies out of his stocking.

He got these really cool flashing bouncy balls. Gran gets the neatest toys.

He loves the bouncy balls.

E put together his jungle gym for him.

He really loves it. It has several balls with it that go down a slide and it sings and has all sorts of little gadgets on it.
