Finally, a bit of winter in winter

It's been an interesting couple of years as far as New England weather. 2 years ago we had 3 winters in one. Last year we had winter in fall and then spring all winter long. This year....a White Christmas and what looks like the start of a real winter. They call it Bombogenesis.

 

We got 10-12 inches, about.

Cookies for Santa

 

Cookies for Robby! 

 

Cheese steaks for dinner

Merry Christmas to All and to All a good night!

Christimas 2.0 (technically 1.25)

Last year Christmas was wonderful, but Robby was new and not really in tune with what was going on. This year, it was so different: He got it right away! He had a blast with the toys. He was so excited to open his presents. Having the tiny tubbs adds a whole new meaning to Christmas.

 

PRESENTS!

 

Look at the tunnel

 

This is great!

 

I think I could get used to this...

 

Vroommm!!!!

 

Vroom Vroooooommmm!!!!!!

So many Toys!

A little Boys Time

Me and Dad had a few hours to play by ourselves while Mommy was out chillin' and relaxing. What to do? Break out the Cars!

 

Look at all my trucks

 

On the floor getting this thing going

 

Creating playtime where ever I feel like it.

 

'cause that's how we do!

 

we keep it rolling

Baby Blue Bear

Robby's favorite bath towel. He looks like the Blue Darth Vader.

Robby finds his Ketchup

 

Took Robby to to lunch after the Wharf

 

Nice Spot

 

"I got Ketchup"

 

"I love this stuff"

 

"More Fries, Please"

 

And he now knows over 50 words and is starting to use 2 word sentences. Baby Genius.

The Essex Wharf -- Duck! BIRDS!

Well, any trip to a river museum wouldn't be complete without attacking the locals with a stick and learning to throw rocks into the water. Enjoy!

 

This way to fun, mom

 

At the dock

 

Staring out into the river

 

BIRD!

 

BIRD BIRD BIRD BIRD BIRD!

 

 

Come back --  I have a stick. Don't be scared. It's a stick.

 

Another Bird. BIRD BIRD BIRD!

 

I'm coming!

 

Found an anchor

 

Let me throw more rocks, Mom.

 

Dad's rock.

 

I'm going to get me that bird.

 

Mom's rock too

 

Throwing rocks

 

Dad again

 

Such a nice day down by the river. Time for Lunch.
