Eleanor and her love of hats are making yet another appearance today. In this photo she has just helped me open my ornament in the 24 days of Christmas and has decided to turn the box into a hat. She’s also having a little iChat with Aunt Suzy.
The hat is practical as well as stylish. [...]

The 24 days of Christmas turned its attention to ornaments for the tree yesterday with a beautiful and fragile ball and glove ornament for Oliver. Tonight it was Eleanor’s turn and Aunt Suzy found a very appropriate “chubby santa”. Since I started hanging up the Christmas cards Eleanor has become interested in Santa (and snowmen too, [...]

Just six days left in the 24 days of Christmas. The last six boxes all look the same and I was warned their contents are fragile. Oliver was first tonight and found a baseball and glove for the Christmas tree. Glass. While he said he thought the baseball was for throwing he didn’t actually throw [...]

Sorry for the lack of photographic evidence tonight. I was too busy trying to figure out how to properly adjust my MacBook so Aunt Suzy could witness local events. Oh how I long for the old iSight cameras that clipped on and were nicely adjustable. What the heck am I going to do at Christmas? [...]

Eleanor’s turn on day 17 of the 24 days of Christmas. She is such a bookworm that all the new books are a huge hit with her. She about jumped out of her jacket on the bus this morning when the dad who rides with his 4 year old daughter sat down next to us [...]

Another day, another Skippyjon Jones book. Kind of appropriate, since Oliver has been in the doghouse a bit himself. He had to have a “sit down and think” at school each of the last two days. This is the first time since school started in September and in both cases it was due to not [...]

CD opened chocolate tonight. Really good chocolate. Really good photos? Not so much. What little photo mojo I had has left the building.
I therefore present a little gift from me, Big Papi, and the rest of the Red Sox to you. Pay no attention to the cheesy menorah and tree.

We’re back to photos to document the 24 days of Christmas. It was my turn tonight, though when Oliver heard that he decided we needed some “teamwork” and we should be partners. He has just started doing things with a partner at school so this isn’t too surprising.
Oliver’s psychic abilities were found to be faulty [...]

As predicted by Oliver yesterday, Eleanor opened a lovely pair of Steeler socks tonight. Oliver would like them to wear their matching Steeler shirts and socks tomorrow when we go to Music Together. Oliver can wear his, but I would like Miss E to go with something a bit more festive. She’s so darn cute [...]

It’s day 12 of the 24 days of Christmas. Due to the nasty weather in the northeast, Aunt Suzy experienced an untimely power outage so she was unable to join us for the present opening activities. At the time I didn’t know why she suddenly logged out but I made an educated guess and shot [...]
