Up bright and early for breakfast at Dixie Quicks. Clearly need to go more often, as Desmond was confused when dad suggested pancakes with the dinosaurs.

Mom’s first full day alone together with both kids called for finally pulling out the birthday play-doh.
Santa didn’t realize it, but this is the most boring present ever for an impatient toddler. Put dinosaur egg in jar of water and watch it hatch over 1-2 days and then grow for up to 3 weeks. Santa will read the directions more clearly for future presents.

With countless toddlers with noisemakers, we once again rang in the “noon year” at the Durham.
Des not impressed with the band
Waiting for those balloons
So many balloons to catch/stomp
And confetti!
