Christmas Afternoon!

After a morning of napping and nibbling on our Honeybaked Ham, we waited for the arrival of Grandma Obie, Grandpa Bill, and Aunt Teresa with the cousin-pups. Bill was a good sport and wore my reindeer antlers most of the night, I think he looks quite dashing, don't you? Get it...dashing...reindeer...yeah...

Aunt Teresa managed to snag a amusing photo of me gushing over cute little critter cars that Aunt Lisa, Uncle James and the cousins got Fletcher. Fletcher is about to start crying/whining in this picture, which is honestly how he spent a good deal of his time that day. He was just a little too sick and tired to take it all in, so we went through our second round of presents pretty quick

There were periods of perkiness however when he played with his little cars and the Big Boy piggy bank his Grandpa Bill got him. He also seemed to enjoy the tags that came on his clothes from his cousins, which amused him for the better part of an hour. Aunt Teresa got him some bath toys with a big fluffy Finding Nemo that he also thought was pretty cool.

Fletcher of course also liked having his cousin-pups there to play with and help cheer him up.
Fletcher inspects the bow that had just previously graced his head.

After presents it was time for a food and we had an enjoyable spread of Honeybaked Ham (that stuff is SO good!), a chicken, stuffing, broccoli casserole, green beans and some rolls with a little bit of pumpkin pie and eggnog for dessert. Very tasty! Fletcher has some fruit and yogurt along with some crunchies and as much formula as we could get in him. After dinner we all settled down to watch A Christmas Story which was amusing, its been a long time since I've seen it. Grandpa Bill said that the movie was just like it was for him growing up, complete with BB guns and bullies. Fletcher had a good second wind because I had given him some Tylenol for a fever that had started, so he spent some time playing with his toys and watching the movie with us. After awhile it was time to wind down so we said our 'goodnight's' and 'merry christmas's' and settled Fletcher into a long series of naps for the rest of the night.
Poor little guy didn't have the smoothest day, but I hope he enjoyed some of it. I have a feeling we will be heading to the doctors tomorrow so Mommy and Daddy hope he will be feeling well again soon so he can play with all his new toys!
We hope everyone else had a great day too!
