It's Christmas Day.
Preparations began last night with setting out a libation and a gingerbread biscuit for Santa and some water, a carrot and some magic reindeer food for his team. The pic shows Edward taking a photograph of his tableau.
Then off to bed for our boy, to try to overcome excitement and get to sleep.
On Christmas morning we opened some gifts, including this fishing game for Ed from his Uncle Damian and Aunt Sharon. It comprises a tin containing magnetic fish. The fish are caught by Edward using his fishing rod with a magnet on the end. Loads of fun.
Ed's Grandpa Alan gave him a Hotwheels kit with a hand-held launcher and a few cars. Wow.
Gabrielle and I gave Edward a bicycle, and Grandpa Roger gave him a helmet to preserve his brain. This bike is decorated with a Lightning McQueen motif, currently one of Ed's favourite movie characters.
We hosted family Christmas luncheon and of course children brought along their newest and best Christmas things. Eloise was very proud of her new swimming goggles.
When things had calmed down and our guests had gone Edward did some construction work with the wheelbarrow which was gifted by Aunt Jayne.
Later when some quiet time was needed it turned out that the wheel barrow was also a good resting place. You'll note the more than somewhat glazed look in Edward's eyes.
