Christmas, baby!

Well, Aidan's first Christmas is over now, and it went really well. He managed to stay in the embarassingly cute reindeer outfit we got him all day, and didn't spit up on it until after everyone left. Grandma and Grandpa S came down teh day before, and had lots of fun books and a few toys for him....he slept through all of it, but were he capable of speech, he'd say he was appreciative. Grandma and Grandpa M came dowm on Christmas, and they too had some books and a couple of toys-- most noteably, his first toy chest, though. Again, he was asleep through most of it, happily squeaking once in awhile while he slept.

We, of course, got him the most stuff (which shocked me, because I know my dad, and I figured he would lose all self restraint and have to a dump truck filled with presents) and I remembered buying about half of it. So ina way, it was a surprise for me too. I can't wait for next year, when he can actually unwrap stuff. And, of course, when I get to stay up all night on Christmas eve putting together huge plastic jungle gyms, etc. etc.
