December 2012

After school trip to Lawrence Hall of Science. Short days mean early sunsets. Ansel rode a tricycle with square wheels. Amalia was fascinated with the earth.

Woodland Holiday Parade with Allison, Scott and Nicole.

We cheated with a Trader Joe's Gingerbread house this year. The kids enjoyed putting it together and decorating it.

Choosing our tree!

They love watching the iPad together and usually can agree on a show.

They both decorated the tree this year!

Time to celebrate Hannukah.

Paulette came over for latkes and dreidel playing. Amalia snuck some geldt.

A small Lego Hannukah present.

Annual visit to Christmas Tree Lane in Alameda never disappoints.

Christmas Eve at my parent's house.

Ready for Santa.

Santa Came! Presents wrapped and under the tree. Milk and cookies gone. Stockings filled.

The kids brought their stockings into our room to open. We had a pancake breakfast and then it was time to open gifts.

Lots of Dora and Lego this year.

Working on the new science kit with dad.
