A few days before Christmas we did our annual cookie making for Santa. Nolan was a big help and did really well. He measured out the flour and was a great dough roller. Henry also helped cut out a few cookies. He tried to eat some flour so we made a bit of a mess.
Christmas was a great day. Nolan was excited about Santa coming and had his list of what he was hoping for. Santa brought him everything he asked for, Buzz Lightyear, a cape, and chocolate. He also got a Leapster computer which he has mastered using so quickly. Henry also got some fun things. He got a backpack with his name on it, an Elmo shirt, a few books, and some candy. I am sure they both got more but since it was already a month ago I can't remember.
The rest of the day was spent with family. First the entire Brock clan came over to our house for brunch and more gifts and that night it was over to the Neville side for dinner and more gifts!
New Years Eve we went to our neighbors house for a little party. There were quite a few older kids there so the boys had fun chasing them around. We didn't stay all that late because Henry was going up and down the stairs and we couldn't really trust him to leave him alone.
Since the new year we have just been doing the daily grind. We had a pretty good cold snap so that meant a lot of time indoors with probably too much TV. The past week has been warmer though so we have been back outside in the evening.
Nolan has been able to attend 2 gymnastics parties. The first was for Julia and then for Sophie. Sophie also had a Spiderman come to her party so Nolan was pretty excited to meet him.
Henry is still super smiley guy and is talking up a storm. He has more and more words everyday. He still speaks a lot of gibberish but you can tell he is trying so hard. He still loves his Elmo too.
