Later that day we went to the mall for some Holiday shopping and we had dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. Here is Teddy stuffing his face with the crispy things off of mommy's Chinese chicken salad... literally.
On the first night of Chanukah (OK, the night before, but we just couldn't wait) Teddy and Taylor opened their gifts from Papa Lou. Taylor put on her tutu immediately and they both had turns with the Aquadoodle.
Here's Taylor with the tutu and her devil ears. Mommy was wearing the devil ears on Halloween and Taylor decided that they were going to be hers. She loves to put them on and walk around. She pretty much loves to wear anything that goes on her head, but she insists on doing it herself.
We thought Teddy might want a turn with the tutu. He didn't like it that much (perhaps that's a good thing), but he LOVED pushing around the pink shopping cart.
This is a really cute picture of Taylor feeding her new baby doll. In addition to the bassinet in the picture, she came with a stroller and a car seat. Taylor loves to take care of the dolls, but Teddy isn't really interested in them.
What follows is a bunch of photos from the last night of Chanukah. We wanted to get some shots of them opening presents in front of the menorah. Last year it was easy to just prop them up on the sofa with the menorah in front of them. Now that they can move (fast!) we can't really get them to sit still in one place. The easiest way to accomplish this was to sit them in high chairs next to the kitchen table. This is daddy's favorite menorah because it was his father's and it is from Israel.
Oh boy, presents!
Now... how do we open them?
I got it! Here, let me help you...
It's Leo from Little Einsteins, yay!
I was having more fun with the box.
Just for fun, I thought I'd post a couple Chaunkah pictures from last year. Here is how we looked a year ago.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
