Getting ready for St. Nick

And simply because seeing the Holidays through the eyes of a toddler is just so, well joyful and exciting, we visited our local fire station this morning and had breakfast with Santa! A great time was had by all -

And well HAPPY BIRTHDAY WALTER! Six years old today (or so says the birthday card he received in the mail from the local vet - thanks for the reminder by the way!).

For his special day, we gave Walter a hamburger and some ice cream - the bone too of course, which upset Matteo that he "lost" by burying it and hence I do believe Matteo stated that tomorrow he would help him find it.

And Daddy made my dream come true by spending about...2 hours outside with Matteo (that's not the dream) hanging Christmas lights

viola!

Laslty, Rory, we are ever so glad you don't want these onesies back - - especially after Chloe May found the ONE marker that went under the radiator and ... well took to decorating the shirt you gave her :-)

(thankfully the brown did come out in the wash). I do stay on my toes with two little ones :-)
