More Christmas pictures...


Mommy finally loaded the pictures from daddy's camera from Christmas....enjoy!

Grandma and Papa sent me my very own Pea Coat! Don't I look nice?

Boxes and boxes...
Might Mac!
Harold the Helicopter!
Carter and Caitie sent me more little people toys...here's the helicopter!

Daddy took lots more pictures but mommy is in most of them and she says she's not fit to star in my blog. Sorry!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!


Hi everyone. Mommy sends her apologies for not updating the blog lately. She could say she's been busy, but she's really just been lazy (don't tell her I said that!).
With all of that said, there are tons of pictures here so maybe it will make up for the lag in between posts.
I LOVE to build choo choo's and airplanes and helicopters out of my legos. Here are some pictures of me building one of my giant choo choos.

Here I am helping mommy bake. Mommy says I'm a great helper but she sure wished that I could read! Then I could remind her of all of the ingredients we were forgetting in our cookies (flour, anyone?)
This is probably one of the highlights of my holiday. Daddy went hunting with one of his friends and they got themselves a few deer. So we went over to Mr. Mark's house for daddy to help grind the deer into sausage. Well guess what? Mr. Mark has a real train that goes around his Chirstmas tree and he let me play with it!!! It even had smoke and made choo choo noises! Between playing with the choo choo and helping grind sausage, I had one of the best days ever.

My school had a Christmas Program one Sunday where I got to sing Jingle Bells with all of my classmates. Mommy says it was a zoo but I did really good. I learned all sorts of Christmas Carols this year. Jingle Bells is my favorite, but I really like to sing Deck the Halls too.

We went to a Christmas part at my friends Dylan and Jett's house and Santa Claus came! Mommy doesn't have any pictures here but will try to get her friend to email them to her. I wasn't scared at all! Santa gave me firetrucks and I gave him my pacifier! Mommy and daddy said it would be nice to give it to Santa so he could give it to a baby who really needs it. It seemed like a good idea at the time... I've since taken to sucking on blankets. How do you older people get to sleep at night?
Finally, Santa came to my house while I was sleeping! You wouldn't believe the things he brought me. My favorite was Harold the Helicopter. I played with it all morning and I even took it to school today for my show and tell. I got lots of other nice things too. Santa gave me a bicycle (which I'm still learning how to ride) and my aunts and uncles and cousins gave me lots of cool toys with lots of parts (mommy says Thank you)! In this picture you can see the head lamp my Gigi and Papa gave me. It's really cool. I can walk around and shine a light on everything!






After Christmas, New Year's came! Mommy and daddy were having friends over so I had to help them cook and clean (they still haven't relaxed on the whole chore thing and earning your keep!).



Mommy stayed home with me all week and daddy was home a few days too. Mommy and I did lots of art projects. Here's my playdough choo choo train (I'm not upset here, this is my "funny" face).


All good things must come to an end so I had to go back to school yesterday. To be honest, mommy and daddy are fun, but I kind of like my schedule at school and getting to play with other people my size. Don't tell mommy...I don't want to hurt her feelings.
