White Christmas

We had a wonderful white Christmas at home, just the three of us. Matt, Kyan, and Moose are snuggling on the couch while it starts to snow outside.

Kyan got some little stacking Sesame Street characters in his stocking, along with an Elmo toy, which has now trumped even Moose. Elmo is the new favorite. So far he hasn't even been thrown out of bed OR down the stairs. Kyan lovingly carries him around by his eyeballs.

This is Kyan's first Christmas to be most alert and aware. He even unwrapped some presents, and exclaimed what it was when he saw it...especially Mickey.

The basketball goal is perfect. We set it up the night before and as soon as he came downstairs he made some baskets. He would make a basket, then say "Do it again!" and make another.

He loves his new drum. That will be fun when the guys play their guitars together next time.

He is kissing his dinosaurs from his big bucket O dinosaurs. They are really fun to play with, especially when we read his favorite dinosaur books.

We got lots of snow for Christmas. Matt was outside shoveling the driveway, and Kyan finally got to wear his snowsuit and new "manly" snow boots (is it wrong to get a good deal on some girlie snowboots for a two year old?).

Kyan got hit in the face with a blast of snowy wind and it took his breath away. Dad to the rescue.

Thanks so much to everyone for making Kyan's Christmas extra special. Can't wait to see everyone again soon.
