Christmas 2007

Merry Christmas! We had a wonderful day. Bruce woke up and knew exactly what he wanted to do: open presents! Here is our lovely Christmas tree complete with Sesame Street lights and ornaments from my childhood (I think it looks like a decorated toilet brush, but it served its purpose). We smashed it into a corner so Bruce couldn't knock it over or get to the presents prematurely.

On Christmas morning, Bruce finally got to open his presents. He unwrapped each one and played with it for about a half hour before opening the next. It took a few hours to open everything.

Bruce couldn't put down a few toys. There's a picture of Bruce holding trains in one hand and trying to open a present with the other. Arg, life's tough.

One of Bruce's favorite gifts was a Thomas the Tank Engine train set. Yes, it's his third train set (we have the classic wooden set and a plastic Little Tikes set) - but he loves it! We put a battery in the train yesterday and I think it's nearly dead today.
