Christmas Eve...

On Christmas Eve we woke up early and met Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle Greg at the house then proceeded to the Go station to jump on the 9:08 train downtown. We were going to see the King Tut exhibit. I had been gearing Paige up for a few weeks about going on the big green train. She really liked the train but was a bit quiet in the morning from being woken up from completely sleeping. Jumping ahead, the train ride home was much more exciting for her as she was awake and was yelling "choo choo! LOUDER! CHOO CHOO!!!" to the full train. Anyway, when we got downtown we also had to take a subway ride up to the AGO for the exhibit. The exhibit was quite interesting and reminded me of many things I had long forgotten from University. Paige particularly enjoyed a short looped movie showing how King Tut was encased in a set of 4 or 5 nesting sarcophagus's. Later at night she said, "King Tut was in a box!". We all went to see the 3D movie about Ramses and Egypt after the exhibit. We actually had to pay $5 for Paige to watch it. She took her glasses on and off then started to get a bit restless, but stayed quiet luckily. We all went for lunch afterwards at Elephant and Castle. She was pretty much a star all day and didn't make a fuss whatsoever, even though the day was clearly not all kid-friendly.

After the exhibit we headed back home where I had a nap and then proceeded to make a cake for Christmas day. We had perogies for dinner and then set up for Santa's arrival. A long day for Paige but since she had a little nap on the way home in the car, she went to bed at 10:30!
