A Few More Christmas Pictures

Cat's last day of school before winter break. They all wore PJs and watched "Polar Express" and drank hot chocolate, then parents were invited for a Holiday Party. After we ate more very healthy food, the class did a small musical presentation. Jack sat right down with the class as they prepared, and even grabbed an instrument. He wants to be in Cat's class so bad!

The Sunday before Christmas. This is the best picture I could get by myself, since Ben had already left for his meeting.

The first thing Jack touched Christmas morning was a small board book with a few musical buttons. He was more into that book than anything else for a while. He would push a button, dance to the music, push a button, dance to the music, push, dance, push, dance.
(He did take notice of other gifts... eventually.)

Couldn't resist including this picture... we love this hat that's about 3 sizes too big. It doesn't really matter when you only wear it 5 times during the whole winter, right?

The princess was nestled all snug in her castle...
Whenever we asked Cat in the last several weeks what she wanted for Christmas, at the top of her list was "a real princess castle." This was the best we could do, but she loves it! She even slept in it during her nap on Christmas day, and all night Christmas night (along with the pillow pet and blanket pet Grammy gave her).
