Opening Presents!

This year I did Christmas in a way Jared calls "Hanuka Style". We opened presents with just our little family on the 22nd, then Jared got me one more present that I opened on the 23rd, we went up to Idaho and had Christmas celebrations on the 24th, and opened presents again on the 25th. That is a strange way to do it, and it wasn't exactly planned like that, but it was good and fun none the less! We opened presents on the 22nd because they were driving me crazy. Not because I wanted to know what was in them (bc I knew what they ALL were) but because they were taking up room in my house and making it look dirty. I just wanted to be able to put all the presents away int here places and have a clean house! haha And these presents were the ones that we were not taking up to Idaho. Because lets face it, thats a lot of effort to pack up all those boxes just to open them up there and bring them back home. We took just 2 small presents each to Idaho. These are the pictures we took that first present opening night (22nd)..... and yes there are lots because I have the cutest daughter in the world, and its her first Christmas! hahaha

Paige opening her first present EVER! She was more interested in opening the presents when she wasnt supposed to and now that she could, she didnt really care. haha
 
Once the present was opened Paige went right for the wrappings.=>

On Paiges second present she did better. She ripped open half the wrappings by herself, in order to eat them.
She almost looks like she is guilty haha. But just enjoying the wrapping paper

Paiges 3rd and last present for the night. Baby Einstein music toys from Mimi and Pappa (my parents)

Paige was ADORABLE with this toy! She kept looking up at us and smiling then leaning over to check it out!
Look at that smile, she just loves that toy and she haddnt even played with it yet. haha

Her hand must have been on it for 15mins, she was not going to let us take that box from her!

Paige was having ablast with all this Christmas stuff, even tho she didnt really understand what was happening. haha
Jared and I were consentrating on one of his presents he just opened (nice shirts and ties) and we look over and see Paige like this. We laughed pretty hard and it scared her off but before that she was super consentrated on eating the box. haha
Caught in the act of attacking the paper. haha
By the time we were done this little girl was all tuckered out, and she just layed down in the wrapping paper.

Our little one is all Christmas-ed out for the night haha
 It was fun to open presents with our little family, but both Jared and I agreed its more exciting to open them with more people. Maybe once Paige knows whats going on it will be more exciting. haha We love Christmas and we love presents! haha
