Christmas Eve 2011

Christmas Eve is always spent at Babcia and Dziadzio's house.  As always, we ate until we were about to burst.  But this year we had a special guest....Uncle John stopped in from Florida.  Paul was in New York City so we saved him some carrot cake.

While we ate, Jacob played (and sampled some mashed potatoes).

Believe it or not, Santa stopped by right after we finished eating.  That guy sure has good timing.  Of course we had to open presents.  Alex got busy passing out the gifts.....the light boxes were shirts.  

Jacob was distracted by the tree and lights, but somehow he focused enough to open a couple presents/taste the wrapping paper.

Jacob loves his Curious George and stacking blocks.  He will definitely be sporting his new outfits in the coming days.  What a lucky boy!

Babcia helped Jacob touch the tree.

Christmas Eve with the family was wonderful.

 That bear looks like it might attack.

 

After all the fun, Brandon and I took a sleepy little guy to mass......(the 8PM version of midnight mass).  He did well and went right to sleep once we got home.  I am sure Santa will be visiting Jacob in the morning.
