polar express part deux

The in-laws started a new tradition this year! Tanman's aunt holds a Polar Express party for her grandchildren and we thought we would do the same! It really is a genius idea! This gives our little fam the chance to have Christmas eve all by our lonesome without planning multiple schedules and keeping kids up like crazy... and added bonus: they get to wear their Christmas jammies all month long! We started the night with dinner and hot chocolate. After the nourishment we opened up the sleepers for the youngins and Grandpa read the book to them... or at least tried to long enough for us to snap some pictures. After the show of kids and craziness, we attempted to watch the picture show of polar express but that lasted long enough for G to find the stairs (for the first time) and decided to climb all the way up by himself.


G and baby H love eachother! (although H might be a little mad that G just stole his toy)







Erin, I think I figured out why H kept crying when we tried to take pictures... sorry! We are in the process of learning what "gentle" means.
