Christmas Has Arrived

This was my attempt at making a gingerbread house (from a box!). Apparently an earthquake hit. I took a picture to put in Cade's scrapbox so that he will understand why mommy doesn't make gingerbread houses.

Christmas eve is tomorrow. Its going to be a different Christmas this year, Cade's here! I am looking forward to watching him play with all of his new toys, reading him his new books, and dressing him in his new clothes. I can't wait to take pics of him surrounded in gifts. He is going to be so spoiled, which-although admittedly commerical-makes me happy. All the gifts are wrapped, hiding downstairs and ready to go. We are having a few people stop by tomorrow afternoon and on Christmas we are having the smallest family gathering ever. By smallest I mean our little family and my dad. Neither my brother, nor my mother are coming, and my grandmother decided to spend Christmas with her boyfriend's family. I'm sad my family won't be here to celebrate Cade's first, this is my most important Christmas ever since I am now a mom, but I'm glad Tyler got most of the day off and that my dad is coming over. We are still having a full meal, I even bought a Tofurkey to try (the men are not eating my Tofurkey, I didn't even bother to ask if they would). I'm going to make the best of our small gathering and enjoy the quiet, good food, and good company. I promise to post a ridiculous amount of pics. Merry Christmas to all!
