Christmas Eve
















What a day, and it's not even Christmas! Mike decided to let me Evan sleep with me last night, so guess who got NO sleep! She did sleep in longer than usual since I was right beside her, so I caught a few winks out of sheer exhaustion. We got up and starting baking and getting ready for tonight and tomorrow. We decided to open our gifts this afternoon since we have to get up early in the morning to go to Longview. Evan was so excited about her gifts and was so appreciative of everything! She was really excited to get new makeup!
We spent some time at Aunt Cody's playing with Rylie, Jax and Ian before heading to Mike's sister's house for Christmas with the McConnell's. We all had a great time. Jax is 6 and had a tooth that was so close to coming out. After Mike offered him a dollar to pull it out, Evan took a dollar out of her wallet and offered it to him. Before too long, Evan got so excited with Jax's progress that she offered him $10 (or was it $20)? This was about the time he finally worked it all the way out! We were able to talk her into just giving him the dollar, though.
