Merry Christmas!

This is how our wonderful Christmas morning went:
7:43 am - Hyrum awakens for his morning feeding. Ryan goes to get him and Malauna follows (in order to nurse him on the couch).
7:52 am - Ryan looks for camera (finds it in the van)
7:57 am - Sabrina awakens; immediately finds "Voyage of the Dawn Treader" and starts reading
8:06 am - Ryan finishes getting camera set up on tripod for the "Christmas Morning Family Portrait"


8:07 am - Ryan starts the final breakfast preparations - mixes the muffin batter, makes the Pineapple Orange juice
8:10 am - Hyrum done nursing; starts crawling around
8:11 am - Malauna gets out sausage and starts cooking it.
8:18 am - Blueberry muffins go into the oven
8:24 am - Malauna starts scrambled eggs
8:32 am - Ryan and Hyrum go to wake up Roderic
8:35 am - Blueberry muffins come out of the oven
8:36 am - Christmas Stockings may now be opened


8:41 am - Breakfast is served
9:06 am - We move from the kitchen table into in the music room, take our "Christmas Morning Family Portrait" and start opening presents, taking turns, one at a time, from youngest to oldest.


9:48 am - Roderic loses interest in opening presents because he has already opened some really cool ones, so he leaves with his Little People Fire Truck and goes to play with it on the couch.


9:53 am - Hyrum follows and plays

Very cool! We just dive right in with presents. I love your picture by the tree!

Sounds like you had a great Christmas. I'm glad. Happy New Year too.

Isn't it great when the kids are young enough to be happy playing with the few presents they have already opened rather than finding all the joy in just opening one after the other until they're all done?
Wow, was that a run-on, or what?

Dang, you guys got to sleep in, big time! (for Christmas anyway) We were up at 6am digging in.
