Happy Christmas Eve...well ours at least!








All the family arrived yesterday and we chowed down on a million Christmas goodies we'd all made and hung out. Eli was so cranky tired he discovered a new scream that was highly annoying. Every time he does it we've decided to look away and ignore him. Hopefully he'll catch the hint that it's not going to get him attention. He was happy to see everyone and show off. He even finally said Bye Bye for everyone. We have our "party basement" so the guys played video games and watched movies I'm sure into the wee hours of the night. It was so nice having Eli's door/wall finally done. He's been going to bed at 7:30 now and it's nice to not have to be so quiet that early in the night. Today is our Christmas Eve, so we're making a big feast tonight. Fillet Mignon...yippeee! Eli knows everyone's names. We tested him earlier this morning..."Where's Granny..Becca...Grumpa?" he looked to the correct person. What a smarty :-) We might go bowling and ice skating today and tomorrow. Brandon has tomorrow off from work so we can have a fabulous Christmas morning and day. Here's a picture of our new door and wall. It used to just be an open wall from the living room into the den/office, but we turned it into a nursery/bedroom turning our 4 bedroom house into a 5 bedroom. Plenty of room for a couple more kids and guests!!
