Christmas Fun

If you can get two almost-1-year-olds to look at the camera while smiling and keeping their antlers on, you are our hero! Since we couldn't pull it off, please imagine them looking at you with their big blue eyes and toothy grins. Make them angelic grins. And while you're at it, put their arms lovingly around each other. Yeah...that's what we were going for.
Aren't they little angels?! :D
Like they could resist!
Sneaky little man, he decided to save his and open Nuala's...
I'm a sucker for shirtless boys wearing denim. Nuala's adorable too, but (obvious statement of the year) girls should wear shirts, for the most part...not Christmas-y, but so dang cute!

Reindeer with the munchies. And nope, we don't give them chips, the poor child must have been trash-digging and was hoping for some scraps.
Ha! She got broccoli.

Action shot!

And a little video. Zachariah LOVED this toy when he was a kid, so he was excited to share it with our two. Strangely, the first few days it spent up high, out of reach, and once he came home from work and *gasp!* the babies were playing with it! "Hey!" he said, all indignently, "did you let them play with that? We have to be careful with it!" hahahaha! He came to his senses when I pointed out that, 1. It's a TOY, and meant to be played with, and 2. The thing already hardly works. But Nuala and Bran really like it, Bran was ready to move on by the time we took this video, though.

I LOVE Reindeer! These are the cutest reindeers on the planet. Christmas is soooooooo fun with kids don't you know? It's weird seeing them in a swimming pool though when we're freezing our tushes off here. Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!

Hi there :) Oh that was all so cute.... we enjoyed it so much! The little Santa bike is great...I guess Bran was on his way over to get his turn. He was off playing in the background and then he turned around and headed for the table. They look like they are having fun in the pool with their little yellow floaties...the antlers are a contrast to pool stuff! Can't wait to see them soon. Love, Mom (and Dad too) xox
p.s. yes, we know you like bujeans w/bockets :)
