Coming down the stairs and discovering the gifts under the tree !!

Figuring out that these are for Etienne and that he gets to open them and that some are pretty awesome !

Really getting into the swing of Christmas now…

Later in the day, opening more gifts with the Sizers.

Etienne loves to climb, Etienne loves to climb ladders, Etienne loves to climb anything !

Ladders are a particular favorite so be aware if you have one up and Etienne is around, he will find his way to the very top without much pause or hesitation…

While replacing a light fixture in the kitchen my little handy man / side kick had to have a turn climbing the ladder while I was busy with the wiring.

We joined Cezanne’s playgroup for Breakfast with Santa - a first for Etienne since last year we were in Disney at the time. At this same age Cezanne had been quite afraid of Santa, Etienne showed no sign at all and walked over and introduced himself and even got to take a stroll with Santa. He caught Santa out of his seat and quickly took advantage of the situation by climbing up the chair back.

I remember now what these pictures are all about. After eating all their dinner the kids discovered that there was more spaghetti in the pot of the stove and just had to have more. I put some on a plate and had Etienne on the one side and Cezanne on the other - together they finished another whole plate of pasta ! Some days are clearly eating days and this was one of them !

When you have a big sister who is into dressing up, hair and makeup there comes a time when your curiosity gets the better of you and you have to try it too. Etienne just had to have a ponytail in his hair because Cezanne had one too. I do not think he likes it much !! Good boy !!

Lanelle & Etienne pose on the train.

The highlight for Etienne was the doughnut holes that auntie Kim brought along. They were jelly-filled and Etienne must have finished 4 all on his own.
