Christmas Morning

We started off with a quick breakfast and then read the story of the birth of Christ. Everett sat pretty well during the story telling and only tried to run away when he spotted the cat and decided to chase.

He enjoyed playing with each of the gifts. We took our time opening them as his attention span was cut each time by a "cat sighting" and he would crawl off to see if this was the time he would finally catch that feline.

Everett swiped a white chocolate Reese's cup from Erik's stocking. He loved it!

He was very impressed with the block tower.

Above all though, aside from chasing the cat, he loved the pictures that were sent.

He has handled his cousin's picture several times.

After his morning nap, we had the traditional steak fajita Christmas lunch. The rest of the day was spent playing and spending time with one another.

Everett tried out his new phone skills with several relatives. He only hung up on one of them (Sorry Grandma and Grandpa Albritton!) A couple of them even got to hear him laugh (and cry). Lucky Ducks!

Note: Twiggy is really getting a run for her money from Everett these days. She's had to go for small areas to hide. This does not deter Everett in the least, but he did get stuck between the back of a chair and the wall. He didn't chase her into that small area again.
