Christmas 2014






Santa came and brought both of the littles what they wanted.  She got a cat and he got a batman mask.  Colin had one and Connor must have really liked it.  So they were happy.
Then we waited for Grammy and Uncle Pat to come over for the rest of the presents.  I'm working on the premise of one want, one need, one thing to wear and one to read.  Trying not to be ostentatious in our gift giving.  There is such a thing as going overboard.  I'm not trying to go underboard....I'm just trying to keep a realistic perspective on what our lives are going to be like from here on out.
Grammy got each of them a movie and a big activity pack.  Pat brought each a toy.  And they were great with that.  They played and played.  And at this age they aren't aware of comparisons with all the cousins and neighbors.
Connor is on his third watching of our Christmas Eve movie. We had a lovely dinner.  It was a nice day and now feels like nap time.
Missing Dave.  Although we are pretty sure he was with us and laughing last night with the DVD player opening and shutting by itself.
