Christmas #3 - At Home

Since we didn't have a lot of room to take presents we opted to have Drew open his gifts after we returned from Arizona.  We invited Michelle's parents over to watch and have dinner with us.  Drew wasn't feeling well, but he managed to pull through it to open some gifts.

I am still waiting for Drew to get really excited about opening gifts.  He is still so careful with the paper and I just want to tare it all open myself.

Drew is loving cars more and more so we thought he would enjoy a play mat that had roads on it so he could use the cars that grandma Cardon and Michelle and I gave him for Christmas earlier in the week.  He also got some new books to read.

His next gift was a toy that looked like a dinosaur and had balls that went with it.  She wasn't too sure what it did, but she thought it looked like something Drew would like.  After opening it I still wasn't sure what it would do and we didn't have the right size batteries for it so we sent Michelle's dad to the store to get some.  In the mean time we continued to finish his presents.

Drew loves to hit things, like his drum or his bedroom wall, or whatever he can find so we thought he would love this ball and hammer toy and we were right.  It was the most exciting thing he got up to that point in the evening.

Once the batteries arrived the dinosaur became Drew's most exciting toy.  He was so amazed by the balls bouncing up and down and going everywhere.  I wish I had video of his reaction because it was the best reaction of all of Christmas.  Third time is the charm.
