Well, not exactly Christmas vacation, but PRC observes the New Year as a holiday, and includes a few extra days surrounding January 1st as off days. This means that NZ actually had a few days to relax and hang out with us. Nevermind the fact that when China has a few days off, they then work through the following weekend to make up for days off---so yes, NZ will be working 9 days straight this next week.
But, it's been great to have him home for a stretch of time. We've really enjoyed some lazy mornings playing video games, and cooking while Sal naps--then heading out for a walk or errands afterwards.
Here are some pictures of what we did on our Christmas vacation.

And got lots of hugs from dad |
A nice way to send 2012 out, and welcome in a New Year.
I cannot believe how much hair Sal has. What a cutie.
ReplyDeleteAnd oh, wow. I can't believe the scooter down the escalator. My first thought, sadly, was whether it punctured the tires. Hah.
