Christmas morning came very early in the Dobbs household. We woke up and drove to Covington for breakfast at Brad's parents' house. Nannie, Uncle Brooks and Aunt Rochelle were there, too. We all ate breakfast and then opened presents.

Paxton was still fighting his fever, so he wasn't in the best of moods on Christmas. His first Christmas, and he was sick! So sad! He was a trooper, though. He again enjoyed ripping the paper.

He got some more wonderful presents! His favorite one was a rocking chair from Mimi and Papa. Brad's great-grandfather used to give the children a hand-made rocking chair on their first Christmas, that they, in turn, passed down to their first-born. However, he passed away before giving Brad a rocking chair. So, Papa wanted to start this tradition with Paxton, and they found an adorable chair for him! These are some more gifts he received Christmas morning: a savings bond from Uncle Brooks and Aunt Rochelle, money towards his college fund from Mimi, Papa, and Nannie, his very own set of car keys from Great Aunt Kathy, 3 books from Great Aunt Kay, and a laptop computer from Great Aunt Carol just to name a few.

In the afternoon, we went to celebrate Christmas with the Clive Family. We ate a wonderful dinner and Paxton received even more presents! His Great Aunt Tori gave him an adorable outfit, Great Aunt Tammy gave him an ornament to commemorate his first Christmas, Great Uncle Stuart gave him a cute little sleeper, and Great Uncle Jeff gave him a fun toy! Then we headed back to Douglasville to see Uncle DC and his family for Christmas! Thank you EVERYONE for the amazing gifts, and for making Paxton's first Christmas special!
