Sullivan found this hat at his grandparents and for some reason he called it his Christmas hat and wore it all through the Holiday season. He of course liked to put it over his cowboy hat and would tip both and say Merry Christmas.

Then Damon made Sullivan’s annual Christmas ornament to hang on the tree Christmas Day night to commemorate the holiday for years to come.

We had a full day festival of gifts and fun at our house this year. Sullivan was a bit more aware of the present scenario but instead of opening the gifts in 30 minutes he took his time and opened them over a 5 and half hour period. I mean come on…it just doesn’t make sense to open up a fun gift and not pay with it right then and there now does it? So as you will see in subsequent posts each hour of our morning leading up to his nap. I think Sullivan pace of enjoying Christmas morning is the way to go for sure. He he is opening up his stocking and playing with all it’s contents.

HOUR TWO – Otherwise known as The Woody Hour
Well the morning took a big shift once Sullivan opened his gift from Uncle Jim and Aunt Lynn. It was a Woody costume and hat and once he opened that everything stopped for a good hour. He had to put that costume on right over his pajamas and then wanted to watch the movie which we did, the whole thing….then he had to go outside and play on his horse. It was a grand hour indeed and he wore the costume the rest of the morning as you will see in the next pictures.

Hour FOUR was computer games and art. Damon found him a toy that plugs into your computer that has different kid games. So of course Sullivan had to stop and play with the Elmo and Dragon Tales computer game along with his doodle art and etcha sketch toys.

Hour Five brought with it some more sports toys from Grandpa Leberknight which again he had to test out and some recap of “old” toys he had opened hours earlier and found new ways to enjoy them.
