Christmas

Ollie is ready to open presents. The first morning we put them out, he discovered them and tried to open one. Luckily we caught him in time. He was a bit upset at not getting to open them right then, but he's been building his anticipation and can't wait for Christmas morning. From my memory (and that isn't very good) here's what he's getting from us:

Walkie-Talkie Buzz Lightyears
Military men and 2 vehicles
Red Power Ranger
Dinosaur castle
Bank that makes train noises
Water toys
Curious George DVD

and a couple of other things that will have to be unwrapped for me to remember what we bought for him.

There will be a few things in his stocking like the juggling balls that he requested. Those will now get tossed aside because he's forgotten about them. He now wants a snow globe. Maybe we can find a cheap one before Christmas.

It'll be fun for him this Christmas, he knows what is going on and can actually tell us what he wants. It is great for kids and parents at Christmas when they are this age. You can ask and reasonably get them what they want. In a few years it'll be tougher because they'll want a flat screen TV. We'll enjoy it while we can.
