Christmas Break

A few pictures to show you how I spent my Christmas break. I got to spend lots of time with Grandpa and Grandma. Me and Grandpa even have matching hats. We went shopping a lot-and I like to give mommy kisses while we are shopping. I did some reading with my Darby. She really likes it when I read to her (because then I am not pulling her tail, or stealing her bones- another picture to come!) How times change- it use to be Darby bothering me, now I get to bother her! I also played a lot!! Here is a picture of me playing with my activity table. I love crawling thru tunnels. This one is a little tight- but I made it.

MY BUDDY

Brogan and Hudson came out to play over break. I didn't get any good pictures with Brogan because I fell asleep during our playdate. I tried to stay awake, but going all day without a nap isn't a good idea for a 9 month old kid. I did wake up in time to play with Hudson before he had to go home. He is getting bigger so I just picked on him a little. Soon enough we will be wrestling around and getting in plenty of trouble.

Mama's Present

Mommy got a fun new camera for Christmas. She has been taking so many pictures of me. Sometimes she struggles to get me to sit still long enough for a good one, but hey I am busy playing with all of my new toys.

MORE CHRISTMAS

I had such a great time at all my Christmases and got tons of fun toys. On Christmas Eve I went to Church and was a pretty good boy. Then we went to Taid's and opened lots of presents. Santa came to my house on Christmas morning. We went to Papa Jones's on Christmas day too. There I am upside down and you can see some of my new toys. I got my very first doll. I like to give him hugs and kisses! Daddy thinks that is silly. Christmas at Grandpa and Grandma Jones's was on Saturday so Uncle Nate and Auntie Heidi could be there. I am glad they made it because they gave me a really fun horsey to ride on. I like it so much I even fell asleep on it one day while I was bouncing.

My Very First Christmas!

I had my very first Christmas at Grandma Tammy's on Saturday, and I loved it! I got to play with my cousin Ayden. He shared his toys with me. I also got to open presents. Look at how excited I am! Mama's not sure if I was more excited about the present or about eating the paper! Papa Kevin dressed up as Rudolph and handed out presents. Every one thought it was pretty silly, but I liked it. Then they put the red nose on Chopper (Grammy Tammy's BIG dog) now that was funny. I get to go to more Christmases this week. I can't wait. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

The Christmas tree is up! And I am actually not very interested in it. I am too busy getting into everything else to check the tree out. Getting into everything sure tuckers a kid out, so I had to stop for a quick nap. That last picture, is me with SANTA!! He came to Courtland! I wasn't too sure what to think of him but I hear he brings presents so I will give him a chance!

NO DAYCARE!

I got to stay home from daycare for a whole week! I did miss Shel and Brynie when they were on vacation but I enjoyed my time at home with all my babysitters. My daddy stayed home with me one day. My grandpa had me for two days and mama watched me too! I even got to spend time with Papa Jones and Taid! They were really good babysitters. I am a bit of a handful these days. Sitting still is not an option for me. I like to crawl into places where I shouldn't be. Here I am under my exersaucer. I also like to crawl under the kitchen table. I told my grandpa I needed some new shoes (can you believe I only have 1 pair?) but Grandpa, I don't think these are going to work!
