Because Christmas is such a great day, I wanted to really get into the spirit this year. So a couple of days before Christmas I was allowed to stay up late until it got dark, then we went out to look at some houses decorated with colourful Christmas lights. One house had a great snow machine, and I danced around as the snow fell all around me.
Another house had thousands of lights; we walked down to it through a tunnel of sparkly lights, and at the end were glowing reindeers, a huge Santa, and a strange black car that Daddy was especially interested in. Maybe it's the car he wishes he drives.
If you've seen my video, you already know that Santa did a good job with my Christmas present wishlist. This year was the year of Paw Patrol - I got lots of awesome toys, including a big Lookout for the pups to play in, plus most of the Paw Patrol pups as well. So far, every day after Christmas when the sun comes up on my clock, I get straight up and start playing with it.
Christmas Day was at Grandma and Grandad's house, with my cousins as well. Grandma had set up her garage as a kids' room with toys, balloons and a special kids' table for us to have our Christmas lunch on. Pretty soon the garage looked like a delivery of toys had crashed and spilled toys everywhere.
The weather was so good we also went swimming in Grandma's pool. I was so excited about it that as soon as we got to the pool area I jumped straight in - right on top of the big mat that covered the whole pool! Well, if they didn't want people jumping on it by mistake they shouldn't make it blue like the water!
Thanks to my swimming lessons I'm super confident now, and loved jumping off the edge. Daddy kept hanging around trying to catch me, but I told him I didn't need it - I'm a big boy now.
It was a great end to a great Christmas Day. Just a few days later it was New Year's Day, but this isn't an occasion I'm quite as interested in. First thing that morning when I went into Mummy's room she said "Happy New Year Oliver", but all I said back was "Yep, but can you wipe my bum please.".
Hi Oli, this is Grandma. Wow, you look like you have had a fantastic Christmas. You must have been an extra good boy for Santa to give you all those presents! You will have so much fun playing with them all I am sure. (I guess William would like a play with them too, but probably only when no-one is around!!) I love you both heaps. 😍😍 xx
