Christmas












Dominic is one smart kid! I can see that Christmas in the future will be a tricky endeavour! Already he is pointing out the people "pretending" to be Santa. He won't go anywhere near them! Thankfully we found the real Santa downtown and he very happily went to him and took a picture. He even told him the gift he has been asking for since Halloween, a baby lion cub. (The coolest thing ever, check it out http://www.wowwee.com/en/products/toys/plush/alive/cubs:lion-cub)




He had a great time decorating the tree and was very good with the ornaments. Daddy and I have a penchant for blown glass ornaments and I was a little worried but the kids did great putting them on the tree. We only had one casualty which mommy really should have moved to a higher branch!












Dominic was very excited about Christmas morning and was so excited to open all of his presents. He opened Samantha's as well! He was thrilled to get the baby lion and was excited to see the presents at Gee & Papa's house. Now we're having a great week (mommy took vacation) playing with the new toys and hanging out.

The Polar Express

This year, we decided with Gee & Papa to skip the presents to each other and instead go to the Polar Express in NH. We had a wonderful weekend with snow, sleigh rides and a great trip to the North Pole. The kids were mesmerized by Santa and enjoyed the carols. Dominic is still dissapointed that the man didn't punch his ticket like in the movie but had a wonderful time!
