Wendy FINALLY got the 'truck with plow' that she's been asking Tony for for three years. She can't wait to drive it during the next New England snow storm.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Here is our little tree AFTER Santa made a special visit to our home in North Andover. Abigail, Alec and Aramis were very good, and this is just a sampling of the gifts that he left srewn about our living room. They couldn't all fit under the tree!!
Christmas morning...Daddy and Aramis spend some time together after a bottle and some Chai tea.
Abby's excitement as she figures out the whole present thing. She opened all her gifts, her brothers gifts and Mommy and Daddy's gifts too! She didn't tire for several hours and continued opening items the day after. What a pro!
Abigail with her Godparents Peter and Abra. They joined us for some pre-holiday festivities, complete with some incredible gifts (namely the Hungry Caterpiller game which the adults played longer than Miss Abs) Aren't they gorgeous? They left us to run home and make trifle. Abra is an expert trifle maker, and even made a Christmas version with red and green! I have no idea how she does it!!?
Welcome to Christmastime 2007! Our fun has just begun as Miss Abs turned 2 years and is finally beginning to grasp presents and the joy of opening them towards some unseen surprise. We had a low key holiday given that the twins are so young and on crazy feeding/sleeping schedules. We had hoped to spend some time with our families, but due both to distance and illness, we pretty much stayed to ourselves and visited with our neighbors. Our cousin Amy and her daughter Olivia popped by on Christmas day with a fantastic present of fresh sushi for Abby. Ever since folks found out Abby's new food passion, we've been getting lots and lots of it. And, its never enough. She still loves it! Santa was very good to all of us. Tony got some funny gifts in his stocking, which is indicative of what Santa thought of his humor and tricks from throughout the year. Wendy FINALLY got her truck with plow! Miss Abs is still opening gifts for her, and her brothers Alec and Aramis, although we hope they'll be done by Valentine's Day. :) It's a really blessed time for all of us. We have a beautiful home, wonderful friends and family, our health, and our three gorgeous children. We hope that all who visit our blog are blessed with the same this holiday season. Family portraits this week too. Should be quite an adventure!
