We greatly enjoyed this Christmas, Julian's first ever. Though this one will go on record as a brown holiday season with barely a speck of snow on the ground, we found ourselves with an abundance of festive spirit. Luca could barely sleep on Christmas eve and so slept in much later than we anticipated, leaving the rest of us to a quiet morning waiting for the engine in our Christmas train to wake up. Once he awoke he tore through all the presents (his, Julian's, and ours) and loved every single one. Santa came through with a Batmobile for Luca and a block train for Julian, plus a few other treasures. All in all, this was a wonderful Christmas season with lots of time for baking and spending time together - a perfect end to 2011.
Happy Christmas
Baking with mom is most fun when a hammer is involved.
Thanks, Santa. These toys are delicious.
