Simpson Christmas

We celebrated our Simpson Christmas on Sunday.  Brian, Lisa, Sabrina, Isabelle and James came to Austin for a pretty warm celebration.We had a very nice non-traditional meal of lasagna and then we opened presents. 

This year Luke was able to help open his presents.  He got a ride-on toy that was a big hit.  It came with a little orange cell phone that rings when he pushes a button on the car.  Sadly, he seems to know about cell phones already and tried to drive and talk at the same time.  He also got a fun tool box with some wooden tools.  The ride-on has some storage under the seat which is perfect for him to carry his tools around in!

Later we checked out a big display of inflatable characters at one of the neighbors' houses.  One of the characters was a Santa and he had fun banging on it and practicing his new word "Dan-ta".

He didn't get to take much of a nap during all the fun so by the end of the day he was beside himself.  We heard "no!" many times yesterday.  I was hoping it was due to his tiredness, but I'm afraid he might be getting to that stage.
