Ready for Mountain Biking!?

It was super cold today, but finally got a little sunshine, so we decided to play outside for a little while. EL has gotten so much better with his tricycle and more confident about riding it.

Christmas Presents

Thank you, everyone for the presents!

Happy Christmas Eve!

EL made cookies for Santa Clause in the morning. He decorated the sugar cookies with red and green M&Ms. EL made tried one right after baking it just to make sure that they are good enough to give to Santa. :)

We went to Opa & Ouma's house for dinner and he got to decorate the tree with them. What a nice Christmas Eve!

Zoo Lights!

Wow, so pretty! It was Mama's first time to see the Zoo Lights, too. EL was a little disappointed that he did not get to see as many animals as he usually does, but he was still pretty excited about all the lights. :)

EL the Ice Skater

EL went for ice skating for the first time in his life! Mama thought he would be too scared to even try it, but he actually had fun skating. Mama held EL's hands from behind him so he could still keep his balance. Mama got tired often so she wanted to take a break, so she would ask EL, "Would you like to take a break?" Then, EL's respond was "No thank you," with a big smile. :) Mama was very proud of him for trying it.

Chef EL

EL was helping Mama make gyozas for dinner. He actually did a really good job making them.

Puddles

We went for a walk, but EL was having so much fun playing puddles instead. :)

Happy Smile

Christmas Is around the Corner!

Today was cold, but nice weather so we finally put up Christmas tree and some lights. :) EL is pretty excited about Christmas though he is not so sure what Christmas is. When it snowed a couple of weeks ago, he said "Is it "Christmas?"
