VROOOM...VROOOM!

Another one of Moses's favorite Christmas gifts was a motorized ATV.

"My very own car!  OOOOHHHH!  You shouldn't have!"

"What you can't ride it this way?  OH YEAH!  Just watch me!"

Thanks Uncle Jerry!

WHEEE!!

Moses's favorite Christmas gift was a jungle gym with two slides.  Since the weather has been a little chilly, we decided to set it up in our front living room.

His favorite thing to do on his slide is to set up his monsters from his bowling set and slide down on them!

RAAAAAHHHH!

THANK YOU GRANDMA ANNIE, HAL-MUH-NEE AND HAL-AH-PUH-JEE!

MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS!

It wouldn't be Christmas without a picture with Santa.  

This was the best picture that we got.  In the other ones, Moses was trying to claw his way out of Santa's arms.

Merry Christmas to all!

Christmas Elves

Ayla threw a Christmas Jammy Party.  This time we decided it would be extra darn cute to have all the little ones wear matching pajamas. 

Tell me that isn't the cutest! 

Here are the elves going CRAZY!

Merry Christmas to all from the Toddler Elves!

The BEST Babysitter EVER

Last weekend, we were able to go out to dinner and do some Christmas shopping without Moses, because we found the greatest babysitter ever.

Moses LOVES Miss Caitlin!

Oh Christmas Tree...

This was Moses's first Christmas that he actually noticed and appreciated the tree.

At first, he just took in all the ornaments, while we stressed the importance of just looking and not touching.

As a true Kaplowitz boy, Moses went straight for the football ornament.

"I'm just going to touch a little."

"Oh look!  It comes off!  A ball!"

And what does Moses do with balls, throws them, of course!

It wouldn't be Christmas without a broken ornament.  Let's just hope that it's the only one.

Christmas Art

Moses started off celebrating Christmas with an art project at Charlie's house.

Ryden, the lil artist, was pretty excited to start painting.  He was quite the cooperative artist! 

Here's Sam-O waiting patiently for his turn with the paintbrush!

Charlie was ready to put his creativity to work!

Moses was more into climbing and sliding than the art project.

Ayla, our lil mommy of the group, was watching over the boys outside to make sure they weren't getting into trouble.

After his work of art, Ryden was back to pushing the shopping cart, his favorite activity of all.

Here's Oliver pre-art project...happy and content!

Oliver during the art project.....not soo happy and content.  He just doesn't like paint!

Unfortunately, there aren't any pictures of the art work, but trust us, they were all masterpieces!
