Christmas morning dawned at 7:45 for these two. We had to wait around for another hour while Joelle and Lincoln slept. So Daddy built them a big ole marble run.
At my annual Favorite Things party a friend gave us a pickle that she had as a tradition in her family. Adelyn had me read the story and now it will become a tradition in our family. ;) They had to hide the pickle in the tree and find it Christmas morning. Never were more awkward conversations had.
Brecken was the first to find the pickle!
Stockings! We may or may not have gone a bit overboard. The big kids each had a note with a clue or where to find the rest of their stuff.
Brecken's was hidden "where Mommy stores her blue pots."
Adelyn's was hidden "in the bench with the duck on it."
Loving her purple lemur.
Joelle's was hidden "where we sit to play music."
Sweet girl loves her some stuffed animals.
We are not huge present lovers at the Fitzgerald's. We love getting them things. We hate getting them nonsense. Brecken and Joelle's blankets we had made for them when they were born were getting too small and we never had one made for Adelyn. So I had the grand idea to get blankets made.
Joelle's blanket.
Brecken's blanket. His hair is hilarious.
"Diapers?!" She thought she really got diapers. Ha.
Nope. A pretty purple blanket.
Breakfast! An egg dish and the one of the best GF baked goods I have made yet.
We typically make a cake and sing Happy Birthday to Jesus. We forgot so we had to sing to Him after we ate.
Pictures of the kids in their Christmas jammies.
Crazy faces.
Brecken started falling backwards because "Lincoln was too heavy." Going, going, gone.
They adore their blankets and all of their stocking stuffers. We had a wonderful Christmas.
