Lovely First Week of December

Welcome, Christmas Tree!

Sam and I walk by the baseball caps on our way to
Niko's room in the morning. Sam always
asks for at least one, if not several.

Niko and I played with his Tinkertoys one morning
and he was thrilled with his "etoiles" (stars)

We hung them in the living room to show Papa
(and keep them out of reach of little hands)

So pleased with himself

Warm December for the first few days

So sweet with his Woody doll

Again, couldn't resist.
I love the Mater pillow and Woody. :)

Niko is really into buttons and loves to wear
PJs "comme Papi" (yes, he still remembers
when my dad visited and had plaid PJ pants)

The boys wanted to play with the sleds again
the day after we got our Christmas tree.
No snow? No problem!

Bonbon d'Olivier
Thursday, Ollie spent his own money at
Dairy Keen and bought suckers for each of
his cousins. Friday morning after breakfast,
I let them have at them. You can see how
much they enjoyed them. Thanks again, Ollie!
