Christmas Morn

What a great Christmas! We chose not to travel this year and enjoyed waking up and celebrating in our home. It was low key and quiet. And super cold outside. So, Ben and Quinn only got to try out their "shared" present for a minute...

Ben got a new bike and Quinn got a stylish helmet and riding-along-seat.
I anticipate them being gone for hours when the weather warms up. ;)


Quinn has been enjoying a Mickey Mouse music set (drum, tambourine, maracas, castanets, recorder, and harmonica). We've already had front row tickets to several concerts. Another musical gift he loves is his "Elmo-pod." Imagine an iPod, except for babies. It has about 15 songs on it with play, stop, and shuffle buttons. We rarely get to hear a song in its entirety. Quinn is definitely a "flipper" like me.


New mittens!


Another favorite is his big-boy table and chairs. What kid doesn't want to enjoy a snack or do some art at his own table?

Holding the Elmo-pod in one hand, using his veterinarian kit with the other hand, and standing at his new table....a gift trifecta!


Almost forgot about the train table. At the moment, it's getting hit by earthquakes and sinkholes instead of "working properly."
