What a lovely christmas!

Wow, its have been a while for me to post anything lately. Just so busy with my two boys. They are doing good. Of course, they are getting big too! And getting smart too. For past couple weeks, everyone were sick with sinus pressure, cold and aching. Tristan had few days with the fever, which it is not good. But he s alll BETTER!!! whew!

We had a nice christmas eve and had a wonderful time to spend time families and a friend of my cuz's who from Russia. Her name is Dasha. She s so sweet lady. We had so many food, like every years. Yet, something is different this year. No Pupino family come this year. Things have changed. Oh well, yes it s sad. But it s happened.

We had a wonderful time to spend time our families. We ate alot of shrimps -- few diffferent kind of shrimps, mini crab cakes, cod fishes, mussel and others things. plus pasta of course. it was yummy yummy! After that, we had desserts.
My cuz Tara and her husband, Anton and Dasha slept over.

We were pretty exhuasted of course. Eveyone was! I read a book to Tristan, " A night before christmas". He seems to be enjoyed it very much. He understand the meaning of Santa Claus.

Before that of christmas eve, we alway listening to music of christams songs. We all enjoyed it very much. We sing a long and danced with it. Tristan just learning some words with it. He sing along with it, or by himself without the music. He s so smart. Anthony love to dance. he s so funny how he do it. He was on the floor, sitting while listening to music. He was wiggling his butt and shaking his head and body. It s so cute how he do it. :)

On the day of Christmas, the boys are pretty overwhelemed what they have seen all the presents. They are so exciting to open the gifts. Anthony did opened few presents but just so thrilling and attract to the presents that he opened. He really enjoyed it very much. We can tell that Tristan was so exhausted to open the gifts. But very exciting to open more. We had to help him out.

The boys have so much toys and clothes now! They love it so much.

During the day/and the afternoon, we had company. Jenn and her family came over. We had a wonderful time. They enjoyed the dinner and dessert of course. Ameila is very shy at first. In few hours later, she did come around. She didnt wanted to open the presents. But i have to play with her to make her comfortale. Finally, she opened the gifts. It s take a while for her to come around. Jenn was telling me that it s the same issues with her two other childern.
We had a good time. It was very nice christmas.
everyone went home to rest and etc. Of course some of them had to go to work to the next day. We cleaned up the house and went to bed.
Before went to bed, Tristan slept with us and holding my hand. He love to hold my hand. dont know why. Just that he love it so much. He ws talking to us. He said, thank you santa claus, thank you mom and dad, thank you grandma thank you grandpa. It s just so sweet and thoughtful of him saying that. Of course he had a big day! So, Anthony too!!! he really enjoyed it very much!!!!
