This was one of the very few where he was actually looking at the camera. Unlike days of old, Lucas doesn't much care for the camera anymore. Getting a "cheese!" moment out of him is a rarity as he is more often likely to turn his back or put up his hand and say, "No daddy!" So I guess we need to appreciate this type of photo more and more.
One of his presents was a Batman dress-up set, and he threw a fit, refusing to open up any more gifts until we let him put the mask on. Hence, this picture.
He cooperated with us for this gift since it was probably his most-wanted present, a pair of Spiderman roller skates. Actually, he's wanted hockey skates ever since trying out my roller blades several months ago, but he doesn't really know the difference between those and some plastic roller skates that attach over one's shoe so everyone wins! For the record, that was his lame ass attempt at saying cheese. I guess we should be thankful he didn't scowl or throw something at the camera.
A pretty good full-shot of the Batman costume. On the right side of the photo, you can see the edge of another of his "big" presents, an easel from Uncle Bub (Jonathan) and Aunt Chantal. I'm sure we'll be seeing more photos of him using that in the days to come. No doubt in the process of completely destroying our carpet. :)
Testing out the skates. Note the matching Spiderman elbow and knee pads.
Batman wasn't enough for costumes. We also needed to get him a fireman outfit. He's like our own living doll sometimes.
For the rest of the pics from this morning (mostly opening gifts), check out our Christmas 2009 photo album.

We enjoyed all of the Christmas pictures, and we both remembered the skates over the shoes..everyone had them, but not cool ones like Lucas has.
Thanks for sharing Christmas gift opening with us. Love you all.
