Christmas Preview

Today we had a little pre-Christmas celebration with the Flynn's unfortunately Auntie Erin and Uncle Brian, and Great Uncle Steve were not able to make it. Erin and Brian had a leaky roof in their guest bedroom closet and Uncle Steve's hot water heater flooded his condo. Auntie Jen and Uncle Paddy are celebrating with the O'Reilly's in Sweden this Christmas so it was just 4 of us in Fairfield this year. We were so excited to see Grammy and Granddad today and we had a wonderful visit. Thanks to Grammy for providing dessert and some yummy side dishes. Thanks for making the trip to visit us today we had so much fun. And Ryan just loves his new rocking horse. Here is a little Christmas preview of a rocking horse given to Ryan by his grandparents.




Did I mention that Ryan LOVES to entertain himself with the laundry basket? He loves to climb in and out and in and out. It will capture his attention for literally at least 20 minutes which buys me time to fold, sort and put laundry away, strip bed sheets and make beds, tidy up the bedrooms and the like....every second that I can occupy this busy body I try to do a little something here, a little organizing there if you know what I mean....and you all know I am a total neat freak! So I have to take advantage while he is playing happily! Take a look.



Here is Ryan playing with some wooden blocks Daddy brought home from his trip to Japan last week....again Ryan happily played with them in the big red chair for close to 20 minutes before he started throwing them at Dylan and I ouch! And boy does he have good aim...of course he thought that was so funny and it is hard not to react to wooden blocks being pelted your way!





Also Here is a cute picture of Ryan brushing his teeth....his favorite thing to do these days. He loves to brush his teeth...I only hope this continues once the novelty has worn off!



Just want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas to all our family and friends we hope to catch up with all of you soon! Looking forward to our visit with the Strattons on Christmas day!
