Christmas 2010

A few days after the official photo, Santa came over to the house.  Not everyone was excited to see him.

But Desmond felt better by the end of Santa's visit

 

Santa brought a bunch of crazy elves with him, too. They left candy canes ALL over the house!

Before too long, it was Christmas Eve.  The boys took advantage of the snow for some playtime!

They made a "no-man!" (Dexter still isn't really great with the s_ consonant blends.)

Later, they warmed up with a special dinner-on-the-sofa of sliced carrots, mandarin oranges, and milk.  (Yum?)

And then it was Christmas!!!!  At least one Cooley was excited and ready to go! (The others needed a few more minutes to wake up.)

OK, maybe more than a few minutes.

And Santa really did come!

After presents, Dexter and Desmond enjoyed a fine breakfast of WAFFLES!  It's a new favorite.  I'm pretty sure we threw some fruit in there, too, before it was all over.

And then, a little post-waffle relaxation. (I believe they were watching Monsters, Inc., which some of us have just about memorized by now.)

Boy was it a white Christmas!  

Finally, we made it to Grandma & Granddad's.

Phew!  It was a busy Christmas, but I think everyone had a really great time. The boys certainly love everything they got and made us all smile a lot. :)
