One day we went back to the Westchester Children’s Museum and the kids had a blast.

Blaine particularly enjoyed this section with the large building materials, including some pulleys!

We decorated our Christmas tree.  Sarah was excited to put up this panda ornament that we got at the National Zoo.

Blaine did most of the work, though.

Sarah finally got comfortable at music class again (rather than just wanting to sit in my lap) and got up there with Leslie.

Here she is at our last class of the fall, learning how to dance by watching Leslie.

Blaine went to a Star Wars themed birthday party.  Things took an interesting turn when this man showed up and made half the kids (including Blaine) run to their parents’ laps in fright.

Strangely, he was not asked to leave the party, and instead even got to serve the birthday boy his cake. 🙂

The other big event in December was Sarah’s first haircut!  We went to Gisele’s Salon in Larchmont (where I’ve been getting my hair cut) for her first cut on 12/14.  I was prepared for the worst, but Sarah was wonderful!  Apart from the fact that she refused to remove her panda suit, she did not bat an eye.  No tears, no screaming.  Hooray!
