Merry Christmas!

Christmas this year was a lot of fun and so special for us. We loved seeing everything through Nico's eyes -- I think Nic and I had more fun than Nico. Such a joy to watch him play with his new toys. He wasn't super interested in opening the presents, but once we opened them, he was ready to play!

Nico loves Elmo!

On Christmas Eve, we went to Nonni and PopPop's for dinner and presents. Before opening presents, Nico ate yummy homemade tamales and tortilla soup. He loves his Mexican food! Unfortunately, we probably waited a bit too late to open presents because Nico was ready for bed. (Lesson learned ... open presents first, then eat!)

We are so lucky and blessed this holiday season.
