Christmas 2010 (Sophie's 1st Christmas)

Christmas was so much fun this year. This is the first year that Seth really understood what was going on. He was sooooo excited. We made our cookies for Santa on Christmas Eve, watched Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and sang songs. He woke up early, but we woke up earlier and were able to capture his excitement on video as he walked down stairs to his presents. Sophie wasn't awake yet, so we decided to let her sleep while Seth unwrapped his presents. It was just easier this way since she is now into everything.

Seth's "sayings"

--Seth came home from school one day and i asked him if he had a good day. Here was his response..."i had a super awesome day! Well, i had an accident though." Me: "really, what happened?"
Seth: "i took some toys from the other kids...sooooo, maybe i didn't have a good day. Well, i was a little good!"
---Seth: "i love you mommy. I love mommy and daddy, but not Sophie."
Me: "awwww, why don't you love sophie?"
Seth: "i don't love her because she licks me!"
---Seth was doing something that was starting to get me upset. He realized i was getting angry and he says..."it's going to be okay...all you need to do is take a deep breath."
---I was working out one day, when Seth asks, "mommy, what are you doing?"
Me: "working out".
Seth: "why?"
Me: "because it makes you healthy and strong"
(after i finished...)
Seth: "are you done?"
Me: "yes".
Seth: "let me see if you are strong"
Me (flexing my bicep)
Seth: "well...you're not much stronger. I think you need to work out more."
