The Season Begins....

We started December and the holiday season off with a bang this weekend!




On Saturday, we took our annual trip to the North Pole on The Polar Express! Two things were (obviously) very different....first we were holding a crazy 8 month old on our laps (which made it very difficult to take pictures...), and also for the first time Henry expressed a wee bit of doubt (as we pulled into the "North Pole" he looked out the window and kept saying "THIS is the North Pole? It doesn't look like the North Pole...." The arrival of Santa seemed to make him forget his questions, though...


Elliot was very perplexed by the whole thing:



Henry got to hold the "Seven" sign for the Twelve Days of Christmas sing a long:


And Elliot spent a lot of time eating a cup:



Santa came through and Henry handed over his list (on the list: Legos, droids, and art supplies):





Then today Mike and I took Henry to see the musical of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas":





Henry has, alas, officially decided the cooperating for photos is lame:



But he was wonderfully behaved during the show...he loved the Grinch and the Whos and was most enthralled by how they made it snow inside the theatre (magic!)
