Magical - that's all I can say about Christmas day 2011. Preston was certainly the main attraction :)
Please enjoy some of my favorite pictures from the day with my family.
(PS - pictures via my mom's amazing camera - which I will be purchasing soon!)
When we first got there on Christmas Eve, we were hungry.

Christmas morning - one of my favorites from the day :)
Our little Brody had his Christmas outfit too. Such a handsome four-year-old!
These guys love eachother!
Preston napped during the opening of presents and dinner. So, he missed the biggest moments of the day, but it definitely gave us adults some time to chit-chat.
Santa brought him this Pooh Bear "My First Christmas" doll. And Pooh-Bear is sitting on a stool for Preston later in life. It has an adorable giraffe on it, and I can just picture little Preston standing on the stool to brush his little teeth...so cute!
This Christmas ornament sums it up.
Brody got quite a good amount of gifts too - and he loves his Uncle Cliff.
Patrick and I bought Preston Jingle the Dog from Hallmark. Please get these for your children, the characters are great, and reading to your children is SO SO important! Preston will have all of these characters eventually :)
But, I read the book aloud...Preston was sleeping - but Brody was certainly listening intently!
Preston tried on his adorable hat that Grammy gave him.
Preston is our own little Newsie...sellin' papes.
Not only does Brody love Uncle Cliff - but Preston does too. These next two pictures are such special moments.
And our infamous family picture in front of the tree - it was the end of the day, though - and Preston wasn't having it!
The next day, we all ventured out to Tyson's Mall - and it was c.r.o.w.d.e.d. But, we got so many compliments on this little guy :)
How can you not love that adorable face!?
We will never forget our first Christmas as a family of three!
Next post - the awesome gifts that were received - ESPECIALLY for Preston - I never knew of the amazingly cool kid products that are out there!

Love love love :-) Our Christmas was magical as well! Little preston is just adorable and I adore his smile, precious!
Ok and I have to ask...did you go to Tyson's mall in Tyson's Corner? I know it sounds dumb but I had to ask ;-) that's really close to us if that's wher eyou went!
It was our daughter's first christmas as well, she was so cranky and not into the gifts. Maybe next year she will be more interested in the hoopla.
Preston looks just like you, and his hat fits him so well. =)
LOVE that hat! Oh my word he is precious! I am so glad to see that your new family of three had a wonderful first Christmas!
