Happy Holidays!!!

We've got some catching up to do, don't we? We took the boys to a little holiday event on campus to meet Santa and do some crafty stuff. Simon ran over to sit on Santa's lap all by himself once he found out that Santa was handing out candy canes.

Oliver wasn't quite as fond of Santa.


Cookie decorating, which turned out to be just an excuse to try and eat a lot of sprinkles!


Oliver and I hanging out while Simon was running around.


Cut to Christmas eve... here's the table all ready for Santa.

The cookies, milk and note must have worked, because look at that load of presents!

Here's Simon's reaction to seeing all of the presents for the first time.

Simon was almost speechless, he was so excited. Oliver liked all of the wrapping paper.

Ollie gets excited about one of his presents.

Of course he liked the bows best of all.

Simon opens his train table, which was the gift that he kept saying he wanted Santa to bring.

Ollie plays with one of his new toys while wearing his new hat.

The boys show off their new clothes with papa.

Simon says he made an "H" with the after Christmas bargain wrapping paper.

Just hanging out in Ollie's crib. O likes to pull himself up on anything now and he thinks it's really fun to play in his crib.

Simon and Adolfo went to Connecticut to visit all of Adolfo's family. Here's Simon saying bye to Ollie and grandma.

He's got a backpack full of trucks and he's ready to roll.

Waiting for papa to get them checked in for the flight.

This is a video of Oliver eating. He likes to make this snorty face/sound when he's eating for some reason.

Oh yeah, Oliver learned how to crawl today! We thought he was going to skip crawling and go right to walking because he hasn't been trying to crawl and he's way more into standing and walking, but all of a sudden he just started crawling.
