12/28 - End of Christmas at Nana's

Here is the rest of the udpate from Christmas in St. Pete and being at Nana's house for the last day. On our last day, we decided it was tie-dye t-shirt day. Both of the boys even have tie-dyed blankies that they love. Here is Nana and Eli and Bronco. Eli loves Bronco so much but Bronco hasn't spent too much time with him to he's a little unsure of Eli.
Eli and Aiden loved playing with Nana's Charlie Brown Christmas tree. There is a button to push that plays the music from the movie and they were playing freeze dance to it for quite a bit.
While Nana watched the boys on the day after Christmas, Brad and I went out to see if we could find some post-Christmas sales. I really wanted a spiral christmas tree but couldn't find any. We did happen to find something at Toys R Us and got the boys little fishing poles that they can use in the bath tub. They played with those for quite a while.
We decided to go down the street to a park by my mom's new place so the boys could ride bikes. Aiden rode his bike around for a bit and Nana played with Eli on the playground. After a bit, we sat and had some snack.
The park is right on the water so the boys loved looking at the birds and boats.
Here are just some fun pictures I took of the boys while they were playing around and eating snack. Eli wanted to play peek-a-boo under the table.
Aiden decided to join in too and let me take his picture under the table.  I love this second picture of Aiden because his eyelashes (and Eli's) are so incredibly long and gorgeous.
Both boys then rode their bikes over to an overlook. Eli stopped along the way to take a picture with Nana. Aiden didn't want to get off his bike.
It was a good view on the outlook but the boys wanted to get back on their bikes so that's what we did.
That night, we made a gingerbread house that Nana bought. Aiden was really excited to do it because he knew there was candy involved!
This was my first gingerbread house too. It was fun but I think I'll do better next year. Brad actually did a great job decorating with the icing.
Aiden got the game Cooties for Christmas. He enjoyed trying to put the cootie together but we didn't teach him how to really play yet.
Here is Eli trying to love on Bronco.
One of Eli's favorite things to do is roll around in the bed and play. Here is is rolling around with Nana and playing on his sleeping bag. Little Eli comes in to our room every morning at 7:01 (his bunny wakes up at 7:00am) and comes over to my side and wants up to roll around and cuddle. It's so cute. In fact, I don't even set an alarm anymore because Eli wakes me up at 7:00am if I'm not already awake. I'm curious as to what time he actually gets up because he must just stare at his bunny clock in the morning just waiting for it to wake-up.
Aiden loves his Nana.
We had a great time visiting with Nana. It's great that she has a bigger place so that we can stay with her when we visit St. Pete too. I need to catch up on one more final post to go in the blog book for the year.
