My First Snow

I got to play in snow for the first time last weekend! I learned that snow is cold and it falls from the sky.

Daddy and I had so much fun. We built a snowman! I wanted Ciaran to come out, too, but he was busy celebrating the Bear's victory.

I have a new cousin!

My cousin Ciaran was finally born last Monday! I got to meet him Saturday and shake his hand. I even got to hold him for a minute!

Recovering from the Holidays

Now that Christmas and New Year's have passed, I can work on getting back to normal. I most like snuggling with my dad, pretending Patches is a piano, and playing sea monster!

Now, if only my cousin Ciaran would come out to play...

First Christmas Whirlwind

Whew, that Christmas thing sure involved a lot of camera flashes! If my eyesight is still intact I might be able to play with my presents.

I spent Christmas Eve at Grandma and Grandpa's house. First, I thoroughly inspected the floor for any important items. Then we took annual pictures (so they say, anyway) and opened presents. At first I wasn't sure if this ripping paper thing was such a good idea; I usually get in trouble for that. But everyone kept smiling at me so I kept ripping, and soon enough I got the hang of it.

Christmas Eve brought another fun toy--I discovered my tongue! This should make for fun family pictures for years to come...

On Christmas day we went to Nanny's house where I got some MORE PRESENTS and camera flashes (I like presents). There are lots of fun pictures, but this one shows a real glimpse behind the scenes. So much for the perfect baby myth!

I also got to visit with my Gumpoo and Great Grandma Lillian at my Dad's family Christmas. We had a lot of fun and did a lot of travelling. Now, I'm just trying to get back to normal. What do you MEAN I can't rip this paper??
