Christmas According to Lincoln

We had a wonderful Christmas holiday this year. Lincoln isn't old enough to understand everything (ie: Santa, gifts come on Christmas Day, etc.), but still able to enjoy in the fun and get excited by the festivities. Here are some things Link enjoyed:

Playing with the nativities - especially putting pieces in odd spots. Example: The day we bought the Fisher Price Little People nativity he figured out that they were the same guys as some Little People trucks he has. Soon I found the Angel driving a dump truck in our living room.
Here is Baby Jesus taking a nap on our bed - I guess Link figured it was more comfortable than the manger.


Un-wrapping gifts... very carefully...bit by bit. He made sure to get ALL the paper off his gifts; and of course, helped everyone unwrap their gifts too.


Choo choos!! No surprise here, but it was a Thomas Christmas for Link. He loved the trains, tracks, books, singing toothbrush (yes, big mistake by me), and the HUGE ride-on Thomas from Nana and Poppy.




Boxes. They still make the best gifts for an almost 2 yr old!


And getting LOTS of attention from his aunts, uncle, grandparents, great-grandparents, and anyone who would watch him perform his tricks and antics.

What a handsome almost 2 year old! Kiera also had a gift themed Christmas: Elmo- including a singing vaccuum (which often gets turned off after hearing elmo sing one too many times!) I'm glad you guys had a great Christmas!!

How fun. I will have to store in my memory to not get a singing toothbrush. It looks like you guys had tons of fun. What a great idea to get a little people nativity so it doesn't have to be hands off for a little kid. The boxes that Lillian's presents came in were her favorite thing to play on. I don't know why a box is so entertaining.

I love his obsession with "playing Nativity"! He is such a cutie. You capture the greatest pictures of him, on the bike, with his toys, etc. I'm glad your Christmas was a good one!

They really don't understand the whole idea of Christmas yet, but it's still so much fun! Looks like you guys had a great day.
