My first Christmas!

Ok...in a word, Christmas is AMAZING! Now I know why mom and dad were so excited.

My day started later than usual. I gave mommy a gift by sleeping about an hour later than usual this morning. We came downstairs and there were presents everywhere. Apparently, Santa, the same guy I saw last week, came while I was asleep. Amazing. He was so quiet. Even Buster didn't bark when he came.

Anyway, after a quick breakfast, we started opening presents. Between Santa, mom and dad, I got a lot of cool stuff. I got some clothes, some books, a few movies and some toys. Mom and dad got a lot of neat stuff as well. Even Buster got two presents (that I got for him!)

After a quick nap, we all went to grandma's house. She was just as excited about Christmas! Apparently Santa had been there as well because there was a lot of stuff there as well. Mom, dad and grandma had a big meal while I slammed down some cereal and pear! Dad said it was the pear from the pear tree in the funny song.

I started tearing into the presents there as well. I got A LOT of toys from grandma and Aunt Denise. After playing and being happy, we all came home. Almost as soon as we got home, Uncle Jason, Aunt Nicole and my adopted cousins came to visit. Again...lots of cool presents from them as well.

I think I made out like a bandit this year. I know mom and dad loved sharing this day with me and I am glad they did. I know dad got a little sad at the end of day since my first Christmas was over, but don't worry dad. I have a lot of firsts yet ahead of me!

I hope that daddy will put some pictures up here in the next couple of days for you. We'll see. We know how much of a slacker he is :-)

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Ho-Ho-Ho

Seasons Greetings! As this thing called Christmas draws near, I know mom and dad are getting more excited. I am not too sure how much I understand what this day is, but if mom and dad are happy, then I am happy too.

Tonight I got to go visit Santa for the first time. This dude rocked! I loved him. I sat on his lap and I truly didn't want to leave. I just kept smiling at him. He told he was going to bring me a stuffed animal and a baby doll. I can't wait!



Well, best wishes. I will write again soon, especially to let you know how this big day goes!

LOOK AT ME!

Just stopping by to say hello. Not a lot that is too new here. I have been trying a lot of new foods and deciding I don't like most of them :-p

Everything else has been good. I had a good first Thanksgiving and I am excited as anything about this thing called Christmas that is coming up! I don't know what it is, but it sounds great. Mom and dad said they are going to get a tree and everything.

Well...anyway, here are my 9-month pictures and some of me with mom and dad. Hope you enjoy.
