Christmas

Merry Christmas from us! (even if it is a bit late)











It's Christmas time!! After picking up Aunt Carrie, Uncle Chris and baby William we trekked on down to San Antonio. Alex got a little car sick on the way..... nothing says it's Christmas time like a little curdled milk spewed all over the place. Funny - come to think of it, Alex has only gotten car sick when we are going to see cousin Madelyn. Hmmmm.. Coincidence??

As you can see we do Christmas a little differently in SA.









Alex had to get into the action too.

"Plane" fun
.
I think baby William looks like me!





Tickle Tickle Tickle









Whoopsie.... we'll say Willie's laughing.



Almost got it figured out..... I am a super genius, you know.



Nobody wanted to be the first to break into the gingerbread house so Alex took charge. That's good sugar just waiting to be eaten!


Testing out all the new gadgets.



There was a little down time too. Don't laugh all the COOL kids are doing it like this. Did you notice I finally got my hair cut - just compare it to the ones in the birthday pics - dad has my back he knows all that hair causes us Glowacki boys to get warm.






Then it was off to Houston for round 2 of Christmas festivities. The car ride to H-town went much smoother. More sleeping - less spewing.













Since we missed the main event we came up with some new Christmas traditions. We all went to the zoo. Good quality time with Pa and his lovely wife that has yet to be properly named. (We'll call her Grandma Kris for blog purposes.)




Alex and Pa


















Christmas time may be Alex's favorite time of year just because of all the balls that appear everywhere!







Of course we saw all of the Glowacki clan. Here is Auntie Ann, Uncle Shawn, and best buddy Jaxson. Jaxson got some really nifty toys for Christmas and Alex tried to steal them. Unfortunately for Alex, Jaxson was fully aware of the attempted thievery and put a stop to it.












There were soooo many toys to play with, but a favorite had to be the Mr. Potato Head man glasses.




All too soon we had to head back to The Netherlands. There was a nice surprise awaiting us on our arrival. But more on that in the next entry. Merry Christmas!!!
