Christmas 2009

Alex enjoyed his presents last year, but his was much more into it this year. He helped decorate the tree, he ooh-ed and ah-ed as he opened his presents, and he knows how to tell us if he wants a cookie.



We were fortunate to be in the company of so many friends and family. Here Alex and his cousin Alison are reading a story together with Alison's mom.



He got his first train set (family history suggests it won't be his last). He also got a couple of basketball hoops. He can dunk it if it's low enough. We've also seen some lay-ups, but the jump-shot will have to wait.
