We spent Christmas Eve with Chris' family and Christmas Day with mine, also stopping at Chris' aunt and uncles where Evan got to meet a lot of his extended family. Needless to say both nights he was very tired after all that partying - but he slept amazingly well thanks to that!
As I said, he was very blessed with lots of gifts and love. He got two gifts from Santa and one from Mom and Dad, plus a few goodies in his stocking. We opened those on Christmas Eve morning.
He is actually pretty good at ripping the paper! Loves to grab things and has a really good grip!
Also love to put everything in his mouth!
That's a BIG present for such a little boy!
Santa brought him a sports set - complete with a basketball hoop, spinning football and baseball.
Checking out his blocks set from Mom and Dad. This is by far his favorite thing right now. But he hates to have any of the blocks in the bucket, or the cover on top. He will dump them out and take off the cover himself. What a silly guy!
At Grandma and Grandpa Steinhoffs, Evan was of course spoiled with toys and clothes, but one of the coolest gifts he got was a lifetime fishing license! It's pretty much a given that he's going to be doing a lot of fishing in his life, so this is a wonderful and very useful gift. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!!

Digging into my first present - a motorcycle from Uncle Steve that I can walk behind and ride on. Super cool!
Cuddled up with Santa...I mean, Uncle Steve!
Christmas Day meant spending time at Grandma and Grandpa Sell's house with Evan's crazy cousins :) Those three are going to be trouble in a year or so! He again got a ton of wonderful gifts. Evan loves, loves, loves books, so we often read one or two before bed, but Mom and Dad were getting a little sick of reading the same ones over and over, so we asked Auntie Kari and Uncle Josh, as well as Grandma and Grandpa for some new ones...and boy did we get them!
Here's all my new books! After this picture was taken, we read a bunch and he was so, so happy!!

This present is as big as me!
Grandma and Grandpa have stockings for all the kids. Evan's contained money for college, an ornament and some sweet potatoes, since he isn't quite ready for the usual Christmas treats :)
Thanks again for all of the gifts everyone! What a great first Christmas for our little man!!
