Best Christmas EVER...

I am pretty sure that every year will be replaced by the next, but by far this year was the best Christmas EVER. For one it is Aiden's first Christmas, which means it is the first we spent as a family of four. As to be expected, it did not disappoint. This year Omi was really grasping the idea of Santa and visiting on Christmas Eve. He loved visiting Santa and making sure he took note of the toys he wanted; Mc Queen, The King and Chick Hicks (for those of you who are concerned). However when we told him that Santa would visit the night before Christmas and knows when he is being bad etc... it absolutely freaked him out! I can understand, we DID tell him that (since we do not have a chimney) Santa would make his way into the house through Mama and Papa's closet. We figured it would keep him away from the stash hiding in our closet. It did for the most part, but also scared the poop out of him any time we opened the closet door... I am hoping it will keep him out of there for many Christmases to come.

As usual, the night before Christmas we had our Noche Buena at my mom's house with the roasted pork. Omi was so excited to see the "pig" this year, he wanted to eat a piece so bad. All he kept doing the entire evening was ask when he could eat it. Once it was done and we were able to pull the crispy skin off he got so overwhelmed with giggles.

I really was amazed by how eager he was to taste the pork

the cutest picture I have with my little Aiden

They were on grandpa's computer tracking Santa and LOVING it!

this was snapped in between dance moves

Mr. Aiden loves him some rice and beans!

You cannot tell since the hat is covering his eyes, but he is totally knocked out here. I think he looks a little like a drunken Santa Clause.

Our Christmas day story is not all that different from most I think. Although I thought it was too cute. Omi had woken up around 3 am and wandered into our bed to snuggle up with us. Aiden made it to our bed around 4 ish. Than at about 6 am, Omi woke up asking for a yogurt because he was hungry. Two yogurts later, I stumbled into the kitchen to through out the containers... only to be followed by Omi. On his way back to the bedroom he discovered that Santa had come. He was so excited! He started hollering to Omar while simultaneously jumping up and down "PAPA!!! COME HERE!!!! Santa came and left presents!! PAPA!!! COME HERE!!" It was just too cute, to see how excited he got. Yet I was still able to manage snapping a picture of the monsters before the gift wrapping paper began to fly!

::disclaimer:: my boys are too cute for words

here he is unwrapping the cars he had asked for

he posed for this picture on his own

this little goblin was ecstatic to receive his Yo Gabba Gabba plushes!

These two pictures are my favorite of the morning.

Aiden and all his loot of the morning!

Omi could not contain himself when he saw the 4 wheeler! Getting him to come inside was a battle.

After all the paper had settled, Aiden was ready to go back to sleep.

This picture is not only of my little man showing off the Mc Queen slippers Santa left him at Tia's house, but of a rare occurrence in the back ground. Omar is reading a book! AMAZING! My husband is not a reader at all, he cannot recall the last book he read. What might you ask is he reading? Decoded by Jay-Z my brother got me for Christmas. High five Tata! You not only gifted me a banging book, you invertedly got Omar another present as well!

I hope that everyone's Christmas was as blessed as our's. There really are so many pictures, from Noche Buena, the rest of our morning and from both grandparent's house; too many to post. However I will be soon posting some videos of the morning as well. Believe me, they will not disappoint!
