Jingle Bells

Our son the singer. I am continually entertained as much by him as he is by all the simple joys of life.

More holiday cheer

Snow! Finally! It's so beautiful! Guillermo is in HEAVEN! He's also still very much awaiting Santa's arrival...

Holiday spirit

This has been the most fun holiday season so far. It's so fun to watch Guillermo learn about the magic of Christmas. He is so excited about it. We went out in the frigid weather to cut down a tree this weekend (it was about 5 degrees with the wind chill). Although freezing, it was fun to watch Guillermo help his dad cut down the tree. After about 10 minutes, tears were shed over a frozen face, but it was nothing that a nice nap on the car ride home couldn't fix. Later in the day, we decorated the tree which was nothing short of the cutest thing I've seen in a LONG time. Guillermo was interested in each ornament (still is, in fact), and insisted on hanging decorations. He spent the evening just looking at the lights and playing with some white paper that he pretended was snow. The cleanup was terrible but worth every moment. Below is a tidbit of Guillermo's Santa description. He pretty much wakes up and goes to bed talking about Santa..well, and the few scenes of Polar Express that he's seen.
