Yosemite!

We went to Yosemite for a couple of days after Christmas and we had so much fun. Bijan's favorite part of our vacation was the Tenaya Lodge where we stayed. Here are some of his favorite moments...

The train in the lobby that he could look at forever saying toot toot!

On his way to the indoor swimming pool.
Ready to dive in!
And after all of that indoor fun, finally ready to brave the extreme outdoor conditions...

Fun in the snow...

We did manage to get out in the snow some while in Yosemite. Bijan didn't know what to think but he liked to slide around and feel the snow. It was hard for Bijan to walk wrapped up like an Oompa Loompa and wearing new boots and he slipped and cut his lip the day before these pictures were taken- you can see it in some of the pictures.


This is behind the lodge of our hotel where there was an ice skating rink and a nice warm fire going.

My boys looking tough!

Christmas Eve

Bijan was being a little rascal on Christmas Eve. Here he is getting past our clearly uncreative TV blocking system and turning on the DVD player. This is after several times of redirecting and telling him "no."
You can see in this picture he has turned on his Baby Einstein DVD. Definitely being naughty instead of nice on Christmas Eve.

Cookies for Santa...

Bijan felt that the cookies and eggnog should be for him and not Santa. I don't know how he learned about cookies but he saw them and had to have them. If Santa was watching he would surely skip our house!

Notice that he is sitting on top of the dining table!

Christmas Morning

Our Christmas morning started bright and early when Bijan woke up at 5:20am He was bright eyed and ready to go, of course we were not- Oh, well...

Christmas Day

Bijan was so worn out by Christmas morning activities he fell asleep during lunch (still in his pajamas).

And stayed asleep while Daddy cleaned him up and took him to bed.
