Are you ready to get up Mom?

Well, I can honestly say that it was no surprise to us when Ian wanted to get out of bed at 7am on Christmas morning. I am not sure how it happened, but we somehow managed to distract him with cartoons for thirty more minutes. Thank you child for thirty more minutes(Santa's elves were up late lastnight). I knew that sleepy time was over for Branden and I when Ian said, "It's time to get up Mom. Are you ready to get up Mom?" Once we were awake, we hurried into the living room to see what Santa had brought. When Ian walked into the living room, he was shocked. Santa had eaten all of the cookies (all but a few crumbs) and drank all of the milk that we had left for him. He had also left a million toys by the front door which included a kitchen set with a Thomas The Train activity table, a shopping cart, a football, and the list goes on and on. Based upon all of the new items in our living room, I would say that Ian was a good boy this year!
