A Late Christmas

I'm terribly late in posting Christmas pictures, but here they are, nonetheless. Better late than never, right?
Kadon continues to amaze us with those big brown eyes, and curly orb of hair. Both the boys received a box of Kid K'nex, which they have really enjoyed playing with since then. I think in this photo Kadon is watching Jeremy, who is mid-change from t-shirt to sweatshirt. My parents got him a Colts sweatshirt for Christmas, and he insisted on putting it on immediately.

Here is the Christmas tree. I hastily snapped this picture while the kids were exploring their stockings. Not too shabby a pile, huh?
The kids were thrilled with their stockings this year. They got the usual candy, crackers, and chocolate, along with an assortment of books, new Play-doh, and some flashcards for Jeremy. At this exact moment, Kadon is waaaay more interested in Jeremy's Cars fruit snack than he is in his own stocking, even though it contains his very own packages of fruit snacks. Somehow, what Jeremy has always seems a little sweeter.
Jeremy was absolutely thrilled with his Transformers Search and Find book. He actually spent a good 10 minutes perusing it on Christmas morning, which is pretty remarkable if you've ever meant our rambunctious son. On a side note, see those cute jammie pants? My creation for this year. I meant to get a picture of all of us, but it just didn't happen. Brooklyn's pair didn't work out too hot, it was difficult to sew seams that small on fabric that tiny, so she only wore them for about an hour.

Kadon, with his most beloved gift. In fact, this picture is kind of crooked, because he was moving too quickly for me to get to him. This is a Thomas the Tank Engine flashlight, which also makes train noises when you push it around. One month later, we're already on the second set of batteries, and I'm pretty sure it will soon be a third. We found it on clearance at a KB Toys that was going out of business, and I had to convince Ammon to buy it. He didn't agree that Kadon would love it, but thankfully, was willing to concede to the woman who spends all day with the child. Kadon can't get enough, and loves to bring the flashlight into our bedroom at 6:30 am when he gets up, which is really, really early for flashlight face.
