Christmas 2009


Ready for Church

Opening our Christmas Eve present

PAJAMAS!!!!



My Ride on Truck

A very happy Lucy with her present





Playing with cousin Aiden

Our first Christmas with the boys and our first Christmas together as a family!!! Roman and Maxim had a great day and even though we think they were over stimulated at times they really enjoyed the new ride on train and truck they each got and their new Christmas pajamas!!!

This year we stayed in New York for Christmas .. we decided not to travel the 3hours to Massachusetts on Christmas day so for Christmas Eve we went to mass on the Marist campus and then came home for dinner and our traditional Christmas Eve present of new pajamas!! The boys were in bed at the usual time but you would have thought they knew Santa was coming when they were up and ready to go at 5:30am!!! We got them back to sleep and they slept "in" til 7:30am!!! The boys each got a new ride on/push toy ... not sure that Happy and Lucy are excited about the toy but Roman and Max seem to really enjoy them. They also each got to open a present .. Max got a remote control car and Roman got a toy vacuum!!!

We spent the late afternoon/early evening at Stephen's sisters with her family and Stephen's parents and brother. The boys had a great time there playing with their cousin Aiden and opening a few more presents!!!

We will be heading to Massachusetts on December 31st to celebrate Christmas and New Years with the Nadeau side of the family! We can't wait ... it should be a lot of fun!!!

We do the dame tradition by opening new PJ's Christmas eve. I had to laugh when I saw the ones your boys opened Mattie opened the same ones just in red. Don't you LOVE the Children's place.

Merry 1st Family Christmas.

They look so cute in their outfits and the Santa hats! How exciting to have your first family holiday altogether. I also love the picture with the bow on the forehead!
