Candor had an amazing first Christmas with Katie, Poppy, AK, AB, Todd, and of course myself! Katie and Poppy arrived in Austin on the night of the 23rd. They stopped by our house and had dinner and helped give Candor a bath before going over to AK and AB's to spend the night. The next day, Christmas Eve, Todd, Candor and I went to AK and AB's and hung out for the day. We played pool, ping pong, board games, watched Christmas movies, and everyone got in some good Candor time.
Around 6 that night Todd, Candor, and I headed back to the house. We put the boy child to bed, and then Todd made us eggnog, and we turned into Mr. & Mrs. Claus.
It was so much fun putting Candor's toys together and laying them out. I thought about Katie and Poppy doing this for Kristin and me, and how excited we would be Christmas morning running down the hall to see what Santa brought!
On Christmas morning, Todd and I got up super early to run and cook breakfast, as Katie and Poppy were coming over to watch Candor open his gifts and see what Santa brought him. Candor loved all his toys and loved having Katie and Poppy with him.
We ate a wonderful Christmas lunch and then opened more presents! Candor racked up.
That night Katie and Poppy came home and spent the night with us. They were in charge of Candor's bath for the night. He may or may not have peed in the tub. Poppy got the biggest kick out of this!

Aunt Nancy and Uncle Max got Candor the ball in the picture below. It makes noises and rolls around. Candor could not get enough of it.
Below is a picture of Candor, Poppy, and poppy's dreadful reindeer. We have had this reindeer for 20 something years. It plays loud Christmas music every time you walk by it. Poppy and Katie would put it up every year, and it is soooooo annoying....but it's not Christmas without the stinking thing.
Candor was quite fond of it as well.
After having Christmas at our house, Candor got dressed in his Christmas outfit. We then headed to AK and AB's for Christmas there.
Look at that smirk he has. Quite sassy!
Look at the adorable little loafers Candor has on. AK and AB got those for him. He is so stunning!

We had so much fun and I am so thankful Candor celebrated his first Christmas with so much family.
