On Christmas morning, Darrin had the video camera all set up to capture those first reactions. We actually got up about an hour before the kids because WE were so excited! When we heard Jake make his way up the stairs we started recording. We had talked the night before about how Santa was coming and there hadn't been a single present under the tree before now. How would he react? Well, we were half disappointed and half amused. The only thing Jake noticed was the camera! He kept asking, "what's that for?" We just kept pointing to the tree. Finally, he looked at the tree, pointed to it and asked, "What? This?" He had a look on his face like, "what's the big deal? This thing has been in here for a month!" A few more minutes passed and he finally realized what all the pointing was about. And that was the beginning of the day when Christmas barfed all over our living room.
