Merry Christmas Baby!

Hi y'all!
I hope you had a very Merry Christmas, and got to celebrate with your loved ones!
We had a fantastic Christmas, though it was super cold- only 17.5ÂșC (said Dad's new Weather Station he got for Christmas!) and a bit drizzly so we had to be inside all day. It was still lots of fun though, and the kids all played together really well, and the adults enjoyed our delicious Christmas lunch wedged inside beside the Christmas Tree.
Prepare for the photo onslaught!


So this was Jaimeson’s first Christmas where he was actually more interested with what was inside the present, rather than just the paper and ribbon! 
Being 19 Months old, we knew he was going to love all the toys and books he was getting, and we weren’t disappointed! He learnt pretty quick how to rip the paper back from the exciting thing inside! And there was lots of “ooooowwhh!” as his response when he opened something fun!
He LOVES Thomas the Tank Engine, he loves to watch it on TV, to play with his Thomas trains from the Op Shop (Yep! LOL!), and he really loves when we see trains in real life on our afternoon walks around the neighbourhood. So he just loved his pull-back James from Granny and Papa, his Talking Thomas from Aunty Fliss and his Sir Handel and carriages from Willy and I. He carried around all 3 in his hands all day! LOL!
Here he is, so excited, to be opening the Talking Thomas!
And holding James while opening other fun presents!
Books with sounds are always a winner, and draw a curious audience.
And when your own presents are finished, it's perfectly acceptable to find someone else who will let you open theirs. Like Daddy.
And I was very spoilt with vintage things from Willy and Jaimeson again! Like these 3 Agee Pyrex bowls which are in absolute mint condition! Love them! And some more retro Staffordshire cups and saucers.
Next stop.....
Christmas Food! Like these Gingerbread flavoured and shaped Peeps Marshmallows I got at Target USA. So cute!
And here is Christmas lunch! A traditional fare. I {HEART} our Traditional Baked lunch! Yum Yum!! This year we had baked Lamb, Pork and Chicken. Awesomeness!
You know those one-size-fits-all paper Christmas hats from inside the Bon Bons? Yeah, they don't fit all heads!
So we had a wonderful Christmas with our little Santa Toddler!
Or was he a Reindeer?
And cos I know you're curious, and like to see what we got, here is my annual Photo-of-Jaimeson-with-gifts.
And here are my presents! So Spoilt!
I hope you had a fantastic Christmas too!
