Winter fun

This winter has been all over the place... cold/clear, warm/dry, cold/snowy...no matter the weather, we try to make the best of it!

Riding in our red wagon is one of my favorite activities.

Swinging with my older bro. 

Henry got a SWEET scooter for Christmas, so when he wasn't looking, I asked daddy to let me give it a try. I'm a natural.

Me and daddy post-scooter ride.

Of course, when the weather doesn't cooperate, we make fun inside.

Family selfie!

 It's important to stay sharp with a book a day...

 

I love going to the grocery store nowadays... the front seat is so much fun!

 

 

 



A little barbell work always passes the time...(this is my post-WOD rollout): (video inserted, must visit website to view)

Visiting the ladies at the gym is also a great way to pass the time.

HYDRATE HYDRATE HYDRATE!

I'm also ACTIVELY working on crawling. If not for any other reason than to keep up with my big brother. And to start showing him who's boss... (video inserted, must visit website to view)

All of this activity can be quite exhausting, so sometimes it's important to slow down and enjoy a nice bottle of milk. Nothing better!

Merry Christmas to All

Well, another Christmas has come and gone... and since I have no previous history with this particular holiday, I'd have to say, it was the best one yet!

I'm still fuzzy on the concept of Christmas, but the traditions seemed to hinge upon meeting a giant man dressed in red with fur cuffs and a white beard. He seemed somewhat hospitable, but I'm still not sure what the HUGE deal was about him. Either way, I'm glad I was with my big brother for the encounter.

 

Henry assuring me this guy was legit.

Alright Santa - you got your photo... now where's that candy cane I was promised?

Here it is! (Okay - the plastic stayed on, but I gnawed away regardless!

 

The main festivities began on Christmas Eve. That's when Grandma Marsha, Grandpa John, Aunt Jenn and Uncle Brett arrived. We had a blast - and after meeting Santa Man, I'm much less concerned about Grandpa John's facial hair.

 



 





 

Although I love my Grandpa, I had a photo shoot with that elf hat earlier... and I may have pulled it off slightly better. I'll let you be the judge:

 

 

What can I say - the camera loves me!

 

Christmas morning was quite eventful. My brother was cruising around the house on his new scooter by the time I awoke.

 

Henry was good enough to "help" me open most of my presents, but I was able to get my hands on a few:

 

Kangaroo pillow pet! (It's as big as me...)



Of course, I'm the best present of the year... just ask Henry.

The rest of the holiday was spent relaxing and enjoying family. A few more highlights:

 



 

This I-Pad thing is soooo boring. At least I have my toes to keep me entertained.

 



 

I hope everyone had a great holiday season, and looking forward to the New Year! Henry and I had to bid farewell to my folks 4.5 hours short of ringing in 2015, but by the looks of them the next morning - they made it. And then some. Cheers to a new year of memories!
