Some photos from Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, although not nearly as many as there should be. In all the excitement of Nate's first Christmas, Mummy being sick, house cleaning from build dust (again!), Daddy organising the BBQ turkey, Granny and Grandaddy helping with wine racks, shopping, and vegetable prep - we forgot!

Our Cadbury-purple coloured Christmas Tree! |
But we had a lovely afternoon with the girls, Grandy, Chris and Norm, Granny and Grandaddy, and the three of us. Nate scored a LOT of loot, as did the girls. Hours of entertainment to come! Thank you to everyone for thinking of him, he was well pleased!
We also had a toast for a new baby in the wider Ryan family - little Sophie Margaret born on Christmas Eve, to my cousin Michael and his wife Claire - a future playmate for our nine and a half month (eight months corrected) Nate!
We paid the price though, for a day of great excitement for Nate (read over-stimulation) - the little man took a LONG time to wind down enough to get to sleep :-(. Lucky for us, he's usually so chilled out, so thankfully that was well out of character. Although while we are on the sleep subject, his new rolling trick is proving to be a pain-in-the-butt in his cot, he delights in rolling on to his tummy and then gets wedged against the side and stuck. Cue cries for rescue. Still at least he's getting a strength work-out at the same time! (now if only the same could be said for mummy :-)).
