I am finding out that a birthday on Christmas day is even harder than I would have thought! First of all I totally forgot about his cake until about four o'clock on Christmas Eve! I was going to make him one and have him help me decorate it but I didn't even have the stuff to make it, all the stores where closing soon, we still needed to make Santa cookies, and we needed to be ready to leave the house by five o'clock to visit all of the family that we wanted to. So I called my mom at Smith's and she was able to pick me one up before they closed. Then we always have such a busy day on Christmas that it was hard to even find time to sing him happy birthday. We didn't even give him his birthday present until two days after! I know that he doesn't know any better yet but I think it is going to be hard on him when he gets older. We saw almost everyone in the family on that day and only two or three people told him happy birthday. Then we always have a big birthday party for Michael but it is just too hard to do a party around Christmas so we are just doing a little one for Mason. I think from now on we will have to plan for a better party or we will have to stop having big parties for Michael so that it is fair!
We had such a busy day visiting everyone and he was so good all day. We finally had time to lay him down for a little nap before going over to Kristen's house for dinner. He didn't want to wake up though!
I really wanted a picture of them in their Christmas outfits before the night was over. Unfortunately I waited too long and Mason just was not in the mood! Michael was a good sport!
After having a little time to wake up and playing with Aric he did cheer up and had a good time.
The cake turned out to be a lot better than I could have made! Mason was so cute while we were singing to him! He knew exactly what to do with the candle! He blew it out three times before we were done singing so Mike just kept lighting it for him!
