Images of Christmas

The Final Product

This is the picture we put on the Christmas card. Merry Christmas everyone. My mom and dad take this time to celebrate the little blessings in life:
1. I will be 3 in a couple weeks. Can you believe it?
2. I have been broviac free for an entire year. Amen.
3. I have enjoyed a year of bubble baths.
4. I am working on getting my mom a new couch because I keep throwing up on it....and Dad just wishes that I'd throw up on the tv instead.
5. I have officially surpassed the 20 pound threshold.
6. I have successfully spent the night at Grandma's house.
7. I have increased the likelihood that I will sleep all night long.
8. I babble and babble and babble and my mom and dad understand my babbling.

All of the Do-overs

It's no easy task getting both of us to do what Mom says...at the same time.

Holiday Photo Persuasion

Here is big brother, Tyler. Poor kid. Each year he is forced to sit through a photography session with his uncooperative brother (me!) and every year this results in many candid shots of the two of us. Here's one...that is not showing up on the Christmas card. It looks like we are comparing dental work!

...and Daddy turned 30.

This past week hosted many events. There was the important Ohio State & Michigan football game. Grandma Lyla hosted a get-together at her house because Aunt April and the kids were in town. I got to see Grandpa Terry. We celebrated Aunt April's birthday. We had a small Thanksgiving with Grandma Lyla, Great-Grandma Rosie, Aunt DeDe, Tyler, Mom and Dad. ......oh, and don't forget....Daddy turned 30.

I lived in a pineapple under the sea....for Halloween.

Acorns Among Us

Yesterday I enlisted the help of my mother and brother to gather some acorns from down the street. There is a huge tree on an empty lot on my block and if you stand under it, you are guaranteed to get hit on the head by falling acorns. Mom made sure that I didn't get an acorn concussion and Tyler tried to find "hatted-acorns." He insisted that he collect only the acorns with tops....soon to find out that once bagged, the tops just fell off anyway. Today, I took the acorns to school for all of my friends!
