This was our year to have Kaden for Christmas Eve but not Christmas morning. We were bummed since it was Norah's first Christmas and it would have been nice to have the kids together to open presents first thing in the morning. Luckily Mother Nature intervened. As it often does in Iowa in the winter and the weather was so nasty that he got to stay an extra night.
We decided to start a tradition of opening presents from Grandma Cheryl on Christmas Eve.
Kaden got blocks. The real wood kind that I used to have when I was a kid. He likes building things. Norah LOVES knocking them down.
Norah got a couple of puzzles. She really enjoyed eating them. We're still working on the playing with them part.
We also started a tradition of making cookies for Santa on Christmas Eve. Kaden was an excellent cutter outer and sprinkle sprinkler. Santa very much enjoyed his treat. He plans on spending a lot of quality time on the treadmill this month because he loved them so much.
