Santa ate all his cookies and drank his milk.
Then he left presents under the tree.
Leila asked for a Castle and doll house and she got it.
She has been talking about a doll house for months now.
I love this picture. This is what Leila saw when she woke up Christmas morning.
Christmas was a little different at our house this year. We woke the kids up at 7:30 and got them dressed for our 9:00 church meeting. We let them come down and take a look but they didn't open their gifts until after church. Leila was really good and Conrad didn't care the least bit. Looking back, we wish we would have asked Santa to come the 24th. I think it would have been a little easier. 
This picture was taken as they were coming down the stairs to see what Santa had brought.
Leila was still a little sleepy after we woke her up. I think she thought Santa would be waiting there to greet her.
Conrad wanted to grab everything.
Leila and Milo looking through the gifts.
Leila was so exited that Santa had bought her Castle. In the middle of church, she managed to hook up with a couple of her friends. The entire congregation heard her tell them that Santa had bought her a pink and purple Castle and a new doll house.
When we got home, everyone changed into their PJ's and opened presents.
Before she opened each gift she would say "what is it"? I'd have to tell her "I don't know, you have to open it".
Conrad didn't care to open his presents. His first gift was a baseball. He walked around the house the rest of the time and worked on his curve ball. Leila was so nice and helped opened all his gifts for him.
Christmas was good. A little different, but good. We have been blessed with so much. Christmas has been way more fun since we had Leila and Conrad. We are so thankful for them...and Milo.
