This year Becca asked me, "How old do I need to be before I get a tree of my own to decorate?" I had to explain to her that she and her sister are luckly and spoiled, most children don't get a tree of their own to decorate. Most families only have one tree. She rolled her eyes and walked a way. Some days I realize just how close we are to full blown teenager attitude. She like to tell me she's not a kid, she's a preteen. It's going to be interesting.
Michael and I didn't finish wrapping presents and putting on bows untill about midnight, then of course Lexi woke up and wouldn't go back down until 1:30 am. Then Becca and Megan woke up around 4 am. We convinced them to go back to bed for about half and hour. So there we are stumbling downstairs at 4:30 in the morning. It wasn't a pretty site. Becca and Megan had a great time they weren't tired at all.
They had to "help" Lexi open her presents, they didn't mind that at all. Lexi slept straight through the whole thing. I kept looking at her a thinking to myself, she's sleeping I should be asleep too. Once in a while I would try to wake her up, she didn't like that.
We opened all the presents, had breakfast and cleaned up the wrapping paper so Michael and I headed back to bed about 7:30 am. The moment we laid down Lexi woke up. You know that's the way it goes with a baby. We did finally get a nap before we went to our friends Kevin and Lori's (which are family to us) for christmas dinner.
