Christmas #1: Christmas at Home

We always go back to Minnesota for Christmas to be with our family, but we also want Adam to have Christmas in his own house. He really enjoyed the Christmas tree (and didn't even wreck it!) and loved looking at the nativity scene.

On Thursday morning, before we left for MN, Adam came downstairs to discover that Santa had visited his house early! (Notice the absence of ornaments at the bottom of the tree. Yes, we have a cat and a baby.)

Adam was pretty excited to look in his stocking.

His favorite thing out of his stocking was the Mr. Bubble bubble bath. He seemed to love the bottle all by itself, but also enjoyed some bubbles in his bath that night.

Santa brought Daddy a puzzle of Minneapolis.

But, let's be honest - this is mostly about Adam. He got some more animals for his Little People Farm - two dairy cows and a milk lady (I call her Mrs. Farmer).

Getting a little help from Dad.

Peek-a-boo Elmo! He loved it!

Checking out his magnetic toy for the refrigerator. Now he'll have something to keep him busy while Mama cooks!

Pooser also got a new toy in her stocking - a little mouse on a string. Adam has learned that the way to play with Pooser is to dangle things in front of her face. He laughs and laughs when Pooser bats at it. So funny to watch!

Minnesota Christmases coming soon!

Cute...When Lilly was about 16 months, we got her that same Elmo book and fridge magnet set. It worked great when I was trying to cook, as well :)
