We're So Excited

Can you just see the joy in his face???

Max and his classmates had a surprise visit from Santa during his school's holiday party. He was the most excited of the whole bunch. He kept looking over at me and shouting, "Uhm-ma (Mom), Santa's here!" I couldn't believe just how excited he was. It was absolute fun to witness.

We are planning a trip to Seattle for the Christmas holidays. We will be driving up from southern CA and hope to make it there in 2-3 days. We are so looking forward to just being in a different place for a period of time, having some new experiences and sharing time with my family. So, if I don't have a chance to post before our departure, I just want to wish all of you....

Merry Christmas!
and a Joyous Holiday Season.

Just Having Some Fun

When Max started preschool this past January, he wouldn't touch the blocks, let alone be interested in actually taking the time to build something. Well, last week I "caught" him sitting intently, putting this together. When he was finished, he started a countdown..."Ten, nine, eight....zero....blast off". Then he looked up at me and said, "Look, it's a rocket!" Wow, was I impressed!

"Would you like some oranges? It's my new favorite food."

"Here, Jozey, have some more....."
