Paul's mom's side of the family came over on Christmas Eve day. We enjoyed appetizers, good company and fun times. Owen was spoiled rotten!!! He got a lot of Yo Gabba Gabba books, videos and toys. He loved every minute of it!!!
Muno, Brobee and Foofa - or if you ask Owen, they are Gabbas!
A BIG Gabba!
On Christmas Day, we let Owen go into his playroom and there sat a play kitchen. He went nuts! He made food for us and his Gabbas. Then we went to church. Owen and our priest, Father Tony, love each other. Father Tony visited and prayed with Owen several times while he was in the NICU, so I think Owen holds a special place in his heart. Normally, Owen doesn't get to see him until after church, and then he runs up and gives him a big hug. This time, we let Owen carry a little present into the sacresty for Father Tony before mass. He gave him a hug and then wanted to touch his moustache.
During mass, Deacon Richard invited the kids to come up on the alter to read a story with him, so I decided to bring Owen up since he was starting to get a little restless. While sitting up on the alter, he caught a glimpse of Father Tony and started waving to him. It was pretty cute! Father Tony had a huge smile on his face. Then Owen saw Paul in the congregation and said, "Dada!" really loudly! I heard several people chuckle.
When we got home, Nana and Papa came to play and have dinner with us. Owen enjoyed showing them his Gabbas and his new kitchen. He got spoiled AGAIN, but his very favorite gift was his Lala (guitar). He would not put it down the whole time! He'd hold it in one hand and then play with another toy in the other. He woke up this morning and said, "Lala?"
Overall, it was a wonderful Christmas. We were blessed to be able to spend it with our family and friends.
