Countdown to Christmas - Day 2

Today was Chase's first time to pull a surprise from the tree's pocket. Since it's December 2nd, he pulled his surprise from the #2 pocket! We were excited that Gran was here to join in on the fun!

Gran & Chase

Gran & Reed
Gran reading a book to Chase.
Time for the surprise. Reed showing Chase what to do.
Chase couldn't wait to start climbing the ladder.
Climbing up the first step...
Reed was a big helper along the way.
Checking out the pockets on the tree.
Since Chase wasn't tall enough, Reed pulled the surprise out for him.
Reed checked it out before handing it to Chase.
After the big brother approval, he handed the ball to Chase.
Chase loved the small red and green balls inside it.
Showing Mommy what he got!
Giving it the ultimate taste test!
Showing us the ball again.
Getting ready to throw it...
He threw it then wanted it back.
Trying to eat it.
Sweet boy
So proud of his ball!
Headed back to the ladder to try climbing it again.
