Nyan got a special early visit from Santa Claus himself the other day. Some photos:
Video evidence that Santa does indeed exist:
Here’s more, with Nyan pointing out all the Santa decorations around the house:
And here’s a nice action shot, taken by Grandpa, of the reaction when Santa walked in. Think Mia was excited?
Here she is on the old man’s lap. Yep she was quite happy.
Merry Christmas!
Just a few short videos from last month, with Grandma in town, of Nyan Thomas singing and goofing around at dinner time.
And here we are ‘in the tunnel’ (a.k.a. under the table)
Our boy getting into the holiday spirit: a few weeks back, Mommy was going shopping on the High Street and asked Nyan if he wanted to come along. Why yes, yes he did. And of course he insisted on carrying the shopping bag. Because he’s a big boy.
Of course he got distracted by varions streetscape sounds on the walk, as he does.
Bonus photo of Nyan wearing Daddy’s shoes, just ’cause he can.
Take one toy van, and one piece of broccoli. Put the broccoli on top of the van and voila! You’ve got yourself a fire engine.
He wouldn’t eat the broccoli (which he had said was a lollipop, before he decided it would work fine as a fire truck siren) but at least it wasn’t a total waste…
A couple weeks back, when Grandma was here, she and Nyan had a blast on the walk home from school, playing with the leaves.
They also checked out the remains of a huge old tree that was toppled in the big windstorm we had at the end of October.
Our boy likes to do yoga with Mommy. Except for when he gets distracted and wants to play-eat the corn or noodles he finds on the floor.
We’ve posted one picture from this collection a while back, but here’s the full story of Nyan Thomas at the library. He wanted to stop in there one night on his way home from school, and who are we to refuse him a trip to the library?
He loves playing on the computer:
Here’s a video that starts on the computer and follows him around the library as he discovers a new toy:
Nothing better than finding little nook to curl up in and read a good book:
He also played with the library’s giant stuffed animals. The pile you see here is because, as Nyan put it, “They sleeping.” So he decided to join them.
And here he is hanging out with his pal Winnie the Pooh. Who promptly falls down.
Our little guy has made some good friends with several of his classmates from nursery (day care). Here he is with a few of them.
James (or Jamesy, as Nyan calls him) is one of his best buddies. Here they are, just a couple of old chums, hanging out on a park bench.

Here’s the lad with sisters Miri and Rosa, hanging out on a rainy Sunday in September, plus a bonus shot of Nyan with Miri a few days ago.
And a bonus: slightly shaky video taken from the swingset.
Cousin Poppy had a birthday party on Saturday. It being almost Christmas, there were some dancing Santa thingies. Here we see Nyan not really sure what to do with them at first… but it’s not long before he gets into the spirit and dances right along.
This morning, we left Nyan alone in his room for a second and when we returned, we found him…. reading Cat in the Hat to himself. Commenting on the pictures, quoting lines from the book (‘Look at me, look at me now!’) which we will assume is based on memory and not from actually reading … Managed to snag this little video, until he figured out that he was on camera. A nice way to start the day.
