Christmas!

Christmas

Lets see here . . . . well my girls woke up on Christmas and walked directly past the Christmas tree and Santa gifts to hug us which is good, then proceeded to ignore the gifts!

(Our girls are 4 and 5) So they should be extremely excited!

Very unusual so we said well are we going to open gifts or what girls??? they unexcitedly said yes. We have them open one child at a time one gift at a time so we can take pictures of them.

So Lil A started an opened hers all slow and junk like she was bored when she was finished she said ur turn.

Oh ya forgot we even had to tell them to smile for the pictures! LOL

Then Lil Miss S decides to take the gift opening experience in the same manner as Lil A, opening the gifts slow like they were bored, or should I say spoiled rotten!

They even stopped after ever couple gifts to clean up the small amount of paper that was laying around.

So now the conclusion to all of this is our children seemed as thought were bored or not interested in opening gifts!

Next year we have decided they will only get gifts on their birthdays and their Easter baskets, so that maybe just maybe next years Christmas will be a little more exciting and entertaining!

P.S. Even though the girls were not excited we still had a wonderful but weird Christmas!
