PTW, part 3: Christmas in Oregon

Today's score thus far: 4 to 2! We just had another pre-nap success. Now Owen is sleeping, with a diaper on, so we can relax for a couple of hours. The washing machine will enjoy the rest, too.
Santa visited Oregon a few nights before Christmas Eve- he can do that if you schedule it in advance with his elves. Owen must have been very good this year. Santa brought matching wheel barrows for Owen and Richard, guitars for Owen and Richard, some more parts to Owen's Geo Trax (which is slowly taking over downstairs), a truck, a helicoptor, and of course, the things from Owen's list- a Frosty the Snowman book, a purple ball, and the purple present. Unfortunately we didn't find out what the purple present was until after Christmas, so we gave him a gift in a purple bag. Turns out he wanted a purple container that they have at day care that holds dress-up clothes. Oh well, even Santa isn't perfect. Owen's favorite toy turned out to be a cash register and some groceries. He still loves that thing- bringing it from room to room, begging you to "buy something!"
