Happy 2009!

Happy new year to everyone! We celebrated new year's eve with the Wilson clan. To see pictures of Ben and Elise celebrating, go to www.elisewilson.blogspot.com.

Otherwise January has been fairly unventful thus far. We are getting back into our routine of school, play group and Friday classes at My Gym. Plus, Ben is counting down the days until his second birthday. For those of you who don't know, Ben is going to become a big brother in June and we'll find out if he's having a little brother or sister on January 27th.

Today we went to My Gym for a special Elmo Open House they were having. I don't know who they think they were fooling, but the red furry costumed creature didn't look very much like Elmo. And he didn't speak. He was a fake mute Elmo. Regardless, the children were very entertained by his appearance. I think Ben was a little disappointed. From this point on, I'll refer to him as Ellmo in case anyone from Sesame Street happens to read this blog!

Ellmo's big entrance. Some kids flocked to Elmo (see below) while others started to flee.


Elise was a huge fan!


Here's Ellmo giving a wave to Ben and Elise.

Nini finally talked Ben into giving Ellmo a fist bump.

Here's Elise planting a kiss on Ellmo's heart-shaped tongue.

Ben smothering Elise with love.
