Christmas was pretty fun at our house this year! Gavin loved our tree, Santa Clause, presents and the lights! While the weather threw a wrench in our plans...it did allow us to enjoy some quiet family days at home!
G loved the touching the ornaments on our tree! By the end of the season, most of our ornaments were on the top 1/3 of the tree! We ventured out to church on Christmas Eve, and then had a quiet dinner at home of crab legs and potatoes...yum yum! Gavin didn't get the whole Santa thing...but he did make Reindeer Food at daycare this week and we made sure to sprinkle it outside so the reindeer would find us!After Gavin went to bed, Cary and I spent 2.5+ hours putting Gavin's present together....
Seeing the look on his face was worth every minute we spent putting it together! He loves his new choo choo train!
He also got a memory game and loves to make "matches"!
Santa brought Gavin a Matchbox airplane and truck...they were a huge HIT! I don't think he put them down all day...except when he was playing with his train! He even went to bed with them.
By the afternoon we were all going a little stir crazy, so we bundled up and went outside to play!
G did pretty well and lasted quite awhile, but he did have a hard time when he would fall over because he couldn't get back up! The weather was perfect for making a snowman...here he is! Gavin was quite adamant that he have a carrot nose...
Our poor snowman lost an eye, which then froze into the snow! He's now our pirate snowman, and when you ask Gavin he will tell you the snowman says arghhhhhhhhhh

Gavin spent the evening entertaining Kristi and Dan, while Cary and I went out for dinner at Manny's in MSP. We had a great meal, complete with a HUGE dessert!
What could cause a little boy to lay on the floor like this?
Having to share his toys! The Plumb family was in town for Christmas and came up to play with us on Sunday! Annika and Gavin are 3 months apart, and actually play pretty well together...but man is it hard to share your toys at your own house!
We sure wish that they lived closer so we could play more often!
