Uncle Chris bought the kitties a laser pointer for Christmas. Loads of fun for the cats and also good for a workout (for Rocco's paunchy belly). Apparently, Nolan loves the laser pointer, too! Especially if we shine it directly into his eyes! Wait, no...that's not right.
Too bad we accidentally left the cat hat back in MA. Thanks anyway, though, Chris. (But Rocco and Charley are thanking me.)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
I know. I KNOW. It was all weeks ago. Cut me some slack, I've got an active toddler on my hands these days. A toddler who is "all boy," which a few people have told me (a phrase I take to euphemistically mean, hyper/crazy/gets into everything).
Anyway, Christmas in New England was beautiful and perfectly white. I mean the snow, of course, not describing spending time with Nolan's caucasian half of the family, ha HA. All jokes aside, Nolan's Mimi and Papa have a beautiful home in Newburyport, and it was quite the quintessential Christmas indeed. There was sledding, fun with cousin Haley and Uncle Chris, Wii tournaments, a Patriots game that was a breeze, a Patriots game that was a nail biter, a visit to Portsmouth, NH (such a lovely city--who knew?), a trip to the Dalton Club, and lots and lots of presents.
Here are a few photo highlights:
Three generations of Wyser men in front of Newburyport Wyser home
Nolan shows us how he really feels about sledding
Haley makes out like a bandit on Christmas day
Third day's a charm. He finally gets why it's fun.
Getting ready to sled down. Haley and Nolan are excited!
Aprés sled. Nolan is rosy cheeked and adorable.
Brian and Nolan make a First Impression at the Portsmouth Children's Museum.
Chris and Haley at the museum.
Mimi and Nolan in their Pats colors.
All in all, it was a wonderful Christmas/winter vacation. Nolan was great on the plane, especially the trip home (slept 2+ hours, even through heavy turbulence), and it didn't take that long for Nolan to return to west coast time. Score!
New years eve, on the hand...well, Nolan was out like a light by 8 as usual, and I was out not long after. First time in a long time I didn't stay up to watch the stupid ball drop on TV (on tape delay, of course...anticlimactic much?). Meh. Who cares? New years eve is overrated, I say. But to everyone else who went out: I'm sure it was the BEST. PARTY. EVER! Happy 2008 y'all!
