Christmas

Of course the boys have been super excited about Christmas.  Thomas gets IT this year.  He knows he has to be good to get presents. And we had an Elf "Elfie" keeping an eye on the situation.  I totally recommend getting one of these. It is nice to be able to remind them that they are not being good for me but for Elfie and Santa.  Both Thomas and Connor enjoyed looking for where Elfie was hanging out each morning.  The boys were into preparing for Santa to. They went shopping for everyone on their list.  I was trying to convey Christmas is more then just getting stuff it is also about giving.  So in the spirit they picked stuff out at Kohls for everyone on their list. 


 Aunt Pat made beautiful blankets for the boys.  They loved them and are still dragging them everywhere with them.
 Connor got in a lot of bimanual therapy with all the unwrapping. 
 Love his expressions.
 Thanks Aunt Stacey!
 We made a checklist for the night before.  Which included napping, cleaning up toys, vacuuming, making cookies for santa, and leaving carrots and dip out for the reindeer.


The boys made out like bandits. And lots of stuff to motivate Connor's during therapy.



 Pappy made the boys a "Widget" which we will continue to add to. The idea was to get a lot of the toys up higher to get Connor to stretch and Thomas to have fun with.

 A scooter board to race down the kitchen.
 Connor's favorite was the firetruck tent.
