Christmas Eve started with a yummy breakfast from Chick Fil A. I know. Not very Christmas-y. But Andy got up and went to the gym at 5:30am (yes he is nuts) and came home with the yummy grub for the rest of us.<\/p>\n

Eva and Blake sat on the couch sharing. It was pretty cute although I don’t think Blake likes to be fed by Eva<\/p>\n

We started an art project that Gramma sent us<\/p>\n

Christmas morning- woke up to a little guy who slept in my bed with me- at 6am he stood straight up in the middle of our bed and said- it’s time for presents!! Lay down, was all Andy said and he was back snoozing again within seconds.<\/p>\n

We got up closer to 8:30 or so and the chaos began<\/p>\n

It’s only day 3 with this plasma car and we have already gotten our monies worth. We bought the car for Cole and Eva but everyone has been riding on it and I do mean everyone<\/p>\n

Eva got a puppy purse from Gramma and she cracks us up carrying it around. All of a sudden she is very into shoes, bracelets, and purses.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_8771\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

She stole some of Cole’s army men and stuffed them inside<\/p>\n

\"IMG_8774\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

Andy took the older boys and a friend out to dinner and to the OSU basketball game while I am home with the two younger ones. I actually don’t mind. It’s freezing outside and we are gonna snuggle on the couch with popcorn and watch a movie.<\/p>\n
