Christmas... In January???

BubbleShare:
OK... So I never thought I would be blogging about our wonderful Christmas in late January, but better late than never, right? Also, I know this blog has been written from Nate's perspective, but Mommy has grown weary of trying to sound like a two-year old (as of today) boy. So from here on out I will be writing this blog as a Mommy reporting on all the amazing events that have occured in our boy's life. Of course if I reported on each of Nate's "amazing" achievements, this blog would never end as our boy is quite brilliant!!!

On to Christmas... It was a blast! My parents, Nate's Nana and Pops, came and spent several days with us and we had an absolutely wonderful time! It was so much fun to have Christmas in our home and begin our own traditions.... like making Nate pose at the top of the steps before he could come down Christmas morning and reading the Christmas Story as a family. Nana also brought Baby Jesus' birthday cake and we sang "Happy Birthday" to Jesus and Nate helped blow out the candle. On Christmas morning, Nate was so excited to see what "Santa Claus" and "Nana Claus" had brought him. He kept saying, "presents, presents" over and over again. Have I mentioned his stocking from Nana and Pops is taller than he is??? Every time he opened a gift we thought that would be the toy that he played with all day long. His excitement level definitely did not let us down!!! His favorite presents were his Little Einstein figures and his garage and cars from Nana and Pops and his dinosaurs and USA map puzzle from Mommy and Daddy. Thanks to Daddy and his obsession with dinosaurs as a child, Nate can now tell you the names of all the dinosaurs.


The best part of Christmas was our early surprise gift!!! We found out that we will be welcoming another Baby Brueggeman in August 2008. Yea!!! If you ask Nate, he's going to be a "brah-dur" aka "brother."
