Christmas Day

Today was the coolest day.  I woke up and mommy showed me that I got some presents under the tree.  She dressed me up in a Christmas outfit and layed presents around me to take pictures. All I wanted to do was open them but I can't even get out of the bouncy,  I can't even sit up.  So mommy gets to hold and open all my presents.  Give me a few years and I'm be ripping through them all.     WOW!  I got some neat stuff.  Here are some photos of me with my presents.  

  

A cute pose

Mommy's friend came over and took a few family photos of us.  Mommy loves poses and this one, she really liked.  Any chance she can get us to pose makes her so happy.  Here we are! Daddy' s holding me up real high.  Do I see a bald spot???  

My first visit with Santa!

Look at me!  I'm a big boy.  I sat on Santa's lap today.  I can't believe that there were bigger kids than me that didn't want to sit on Santa's lap.  They were crying but not me.  I was on a mission.  I told Santa that I've been a good boy this year and I already had my Christmas presents for this year but next year, I really want a baby sister for Christmas.    Santa said he couldn't make any promises but I'll have my fingers crossed.

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

My 2nd cousin Quinten

Today I went to mommy's Aunt Mary's house.  She was having a Christmas gathering with her family. Mommy wanted to go because mommy's cousin Virginia had a baby 2 weeks before mommy did and I wanted to meet my 2nd cousin.  His name is Quinten and we had a fun time together.  I can't wait till we get older so we can play with trucks, cars, legos and more stuff. Here's a few photos of us together.  We're the future studs of America!

Aunt Wendy comes to visit

My Aunt Wendy came to visit me.  I was so excited to meet her.  I'm glad she waited to see me.  I was just a mere blob a few weeks ago.  Just lying there.  Now, I'm full of life and I like to smile a little.  My Aunt Wendy is so cool.  She played with me a lot and she brought me really cute Christmas presents. Aunt Wendy has great taste and mommy liked all the clothes she got me.  Now mommy can dress me up.    Thanks Aunt Wendy!  I love you!

Don't we look cute in this photo??

Family photo with bear bear

Mommy's friend Chris came over with his family to meet me.   They brought us a homemade meal for mommy and daddy.  Daddy said it was really good.  I could only smell it and it smelled so good.    My new friends name is Foster.  He's real nice and he likes the OU football team.  His dad would would yell "Boomer" and Foster would yell "Sooner".  Daddy was trying to get Foster to say Penn State but Foster was faithful to OU.  Don't tell daddy but my team is ASU.  Ha-Ha Mommy's friend Melanie got me some really cool Arizona outfits.  I have 2 AZ Cardinal onsies, an ASU sweatsuit,  and an AZ diamondbacks sweatsuit and bib.  I love them all.  I also have have a Penn State outfit and socks that my grandma got me.  I wear the socks but I can't fit in the outfit yet.  Soon though.  

Anyway, the visit with Foster was nice and I look forward to seeing him again.  Before they left, his daddy took a family photo of us in front of the Christmas tree.  Say CHEESE!
