William's Christmas Show
This past week, William's class put on an adorable Christmas show. The kids all were very well behaved and enthusiastic, and had a blast performing and singing several Christmas songs.
They were so sweet walking in to Silent Night. It brought tears to my eyes.
William was front and center in the performance.
Jingle Bells!
William's Noel Angel!
After the performance, he was really proud, and all smiles. He was happy to have his parents and his Pamma cheering him on.
Stay tuned for videos from the performance!

Brunch With Santa!
This past Sunday, we had brunch with Santa at the Hawthorn Woods Country Club. William, Claire, and Allie were amazing and had fun taking photos with Santa, with no tears this time.
William telling Santa he wants blocks to build a city, maybe he will be an architect.
The Newton Cousins with Santa!
BIG SMILE!
Helping Grandpa build the new train!
Conductor William learned how to drive the train right away! It was cute to see him teach Conductor Claire how to drive it too.

Dentist!
Earlier this month, William had his first dentist appointment! He was very well behaved the entire time, and really enjoyed the experience.
He woke up with a visit from Jumba, who was hiding in the dining room chandelier on that particular morning. Jumba brought William a new toothbrush - how appropriate!
William liked wearing the cool shades, and thought the moving dentist chair was also pretty neat.

The Field Museum
Another activity we did on our fun weekend in the city of Chicago was visit The Field Museum! They are currently featuring a whale exhibit called Whales: Giants of the Deep!
In this photo, William is expressing his excitement for the giant whale above him.
Sue still looking great after all these years!
In this photo, he is inside a life size blue whale heart. That is one BIG hearted whale.
We got to listen to various whale sounds, it was pretty neat. The two skeletons you see in this photo are not the biggest whales, but are still the size of a school bus.
We made a quick stop at the Mexican Nativity Scenes exhibit.
And of course we had to stop and check out the shoes, my favorite.
It was so strange to see Rocky Mountain Goats at the museum after seeing them just a couple months ago for real in the Rockies!

ZooLights!
Chicago has lots of fun family activities, and we got to enjoy a few of them this past weekend! One of the fun activities we did was visit the Lincoln Park Zoo for it's famous ZooLights, which are presented by ComEd and Charter One! It was a very nice December evening in the city and we all thought the lights were very pretty.
Although it can not be seen clearly in this photo, William has a BIG smile of JOY!
One of William's favorite Christmas characters (beside SANTA) is Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer! He kind of has a like/dislike thing for The Abominable Snow Monster of the North (a.k.a. Bumble).
Santa!
He wanted to ride the carousel again, this time Daddy went with him. Note how he is riding the same animal as last time, he is so particular.
They had an amazing and very entertaining musical light show display that we all truly enjoyed!
In hopes we would see the newest little Girl Gorilla, we visited the ape house. However, the babe must have been sleeping like the rest of them. William still had a lot of fun!
Lots of Light Fun!
