We added one special surprise to our usual Christmas Eve traditions this year. After the kids opened their Christmas books and jammies, we passed them one more package. It contained a tiny pair of newborn baby jammies. It took them a minute, but after talking it through, they figured out that we were trying to tell them about the new baby coming. They gave us some pretty good reactions, especially Hanna who demanded to know if it was a girl...a few more months of waiting to figure that out, but everybody's so excited! On Christmas morning we were all blessed and spoiled once again. Santa brought an Xbox and a bunch of new video games. Nolan got his Harry Potter fix. For Colby - dinosaur transformers and a new guitar. Hanna got a doll and a slew of girly things. Liam and Reed reined supreme as the Wild Kratt brothers. Scotty and I took advantage of the opportunity to replace our blender and our kitchen pots and pans. We had cinnamon rolls and went to the movies to make it a perfect Gordon Christmas :)
