Oh gosh!! Devin is nearly 9 months now and he LOVED ripping the paper off the presents!
Here is what the tree looked like after "Santa" came. The picture does not really show the MASS amount of presents, but you can kinda get the idea.

AAAAWWWWW!! Thanx Dixie! They look a lot alike. though she was a fuller baby and he is long and super thin.

Holy cow, dondeb, that's a ton of presents! Santa was good to you guys this year, haha.

Jake sorta ripped at the paper but unfortunately he was pretty tired while we were opening gifts. I had woken him up around 9, thinking every one else would probably be up by 10 or so. But no, we didn't start opening presents until 11:30 & the poor baby was ready for a nap by then.

I should add, we have a matell outlet factory store right by my house, so everything "Santa" got was all 50-60% off regular price. "he" either had coupons for 50% off or got green tagged items that were 50-60% off due to them being damaged boxes. I got one of the dino toys with the little balls that everyone has now, for $17 cause the box was sliced and bent!! So I guess that would explain why "Santa" went a little over board. I even got gifts for Devin's first b-day that I put away!

Sorry, i couldnt really get a good one...

[dondeb562]

WOW!! How pretty Kate!! I just love that ring!

Yah the outlet store is like a crazy addiction!! I go just to see what they have in the damaged boxes since they are so freaking cheap! It is crazy though, cause you have all the ebay people and swap meet people trying to kill each other over the damaged box stuff! Since I do not buy it to re sell, the girls who work there like me and try to help me get stuff before the re sellers get to it. They are so nice to me there!

Hahahah thats always a good thing!!! I dont go too often, but sometimes my cousins, mom, aunt, & i go. Normally its an ALL day event. haha A lot of fun out with the girls.

Thanks! I love it.. its VERY vintage & thats exactly what i wanted. There is also a story behind it, which makes it even more special to me. Its been in my family for a long long time. My mom gave it to Chris to give to me when he was ready.. I am head over heals for it.. But the photo doesnt do it any justice.

Oh, I meant to post yesterday. Devin has been really sick (first cold, poor baby :( ) My daughter brought home a cold and we ALL caught it and were all sick for Christmas. Well, I took him to the drs for the horrible congestion and cough and the weighed and measured him. He is 17 pounds and 10 ounces and 29.75 inches. So I guess he has slowed a bit( ? )( don't know though they did say he is long though :dunno: ) in growth cause when he went to get his shots 2 and a half months ago he was 28.5 and around 16 and a half pounds or so.
Oh and his front tooth FINALLY broke through today! So he now has 6 teeth!
