Santa Found Our House- A Day Early!

Santa found our house in Urbana and delivered presents for Eli a day early. That Santa is one smart cookie. He knew we'd be in Milton at Mim and Pop's house on Christmas Day, so he managed to deliver Eli's gifts a day early!

Just as we suspected, Eli was interested in eating the paper, although he was pretty good at opening gifts. He got a Bee Bop Band, some CDs, a more advanced shape sorter, and the Little People Nativity among other things. That Santa is also pretty thrifty. It turns out that Eli's cousin Mina was the owner of that slide and she had outgrown it. Santa decided to bring it to Eli. He got a big kick out of the slide. He drove his cars up and down it and watched me push the cars down the slide.

"Let's make some music! Grab the tambourine Dad!"


"Hey, let's take a break from opening presents and look at this book that I've had forever."


We decided to start a tradition with Eli- each Christmas Eve he'll get to open a new pair of jammies. They were all washed and ready to wear Christmas Eve night.


"Dad, check it out! It's the Nativity scene. I bet there is a donkey in here!"


"Check out my sweet slide!"


"It's great for driving cars."




"Thanks for the help Mom"


"Holy moly, this thing is fast!"

"More sliding please!"


Look, there's an Asian Little Person.

Eli will love the Bee Bop Band! Emerson got that when he was Eli's age and the Little People Nativity too. Didn't you know that one of the wise "people" were Asian? :)
