Christmas Time is Here...

Christmas time when you are almost 3 is a magical time. Nathan has really gotten into the spirit this year. I think we have watched How the Grinch Stole Christmas at least 10 times since Thanksgiving. He was so excited when we picked him up from daycare on Tuesday to go pick out our tree. I thought he was going to spontaneously combust with all the jumping he was doing. Then when we got home the excitement continued when we decorated the tree. He loves to look at it everyday. Last weekend Balboa Park's annual December Nights took place. The whole park is lit up, the zoo train is decorated and the museums are all free. There is tons of food and Santa is there to greet the kids. It was madness for the adults because it was CROWDED, but Nathan once again jumped right into Santa's lap and told him what he wanted for Christmas. No fear there! Nathan was a little disappointed that by the time we got to the Old Globe Theatre to take pictures with the Grinch, he was no longer there, but quickly got over it. In the next week or so we plan to go to the zoo to check out there Jungle Bells, Seaworld to try the ice skating and use my pass once more before it expires and head down to the harbor for the Parade of Lights, where all the boats are decorated.
