We had a restless night listening for reindeer hooves on the roof. Actually, it did sound like hooves for a bit but it was just pouring rain. (Again.) During the early hours, Rhiannon came into our bed complaining that she didn't feel well. And as the morning started, with her and Tryfan early to go downstairs and check that Santa had actually come, she did spiral downhill until she was horizontal on the couch, in and out of sleep all day. So it was pretty late in the day (relatively speaking) before we opened the presents.

The kids were delighted to see that most of the stuff they left out had been consumed, except for the yellow sweets (because all elves know not to eat yellow snow or sweets that look like they have snow/ sugar on them). And Santa did bring them what they most wished for: an Innotab2 (kid version of a ipad) for Rhiannon and the Great Devourer Ninjago Lego set for Tryfan. Stoked! We all received really wonderful presents.
Today was a lovely day with just the 5 of us. We did have a traditional Christmas lunch and it was fun to cook together on our own time, then spent the rest of the day and night playing with our new stuff.
