christmas

quentin finally gets the concept of presents, which made for a very interesting christmas. we had to stop him numerous times from opening gifts before it was time. he managed to get a few open before we caught him, and somehow he always opened ones that were actually for him. maybe he recognizes his name in print? - once it was finally time to open gifts, quentin parked himself in the center of the room with his haul, fairly oblivious to most everything going on around him. of course, as he opened each gift, he immediately wanted toys out of their packaging. -

the first gift he got his hands on - diesel 10

-

surprise, surprise. he got more thomas, so the train grew as he opened.

early on, before the crazy amounts of wrapping paper

the pile grows opening his favorite gift of the day... the model dunkin donuts 18-wheeler from mommy. do i know my kid or what?

as soon as he opened it, he said, "dozits!"

in heaven

the amount of concentration in his face makes me laugh
