Christmas in Videos

This is the final installment of my Christmas Extravaganza! Videos!

Grandpa and Grandma Schehr got me this cool snowman chair for bouncing in!



And Nana and Grandpa Kenny let me use this chair for spinning!



And I played soccer at Grandma and Grandpa Larson's house...



Plus, I got a new house!



Mommy & I had coffee outside my new house. It was delicious.



But I think my favorite thing of all was going to see the trains! Mommy took lots of video of me at the trains because I liked it so much.

I had a very busy Christmas this year. I hardly had time for naps, it was so adventure-filled! Here are a few highlights...

Snow Weekend.

We stayed inside almost all weekend. It was too cold outside, and too snowy.

I did lots of snuggling







And I read some Emily Dickenson in Mommy's box of books.



And I stole Mommy's nearly empty yogurt container and helped myself to a little treat!

Helping Mommy.

I helped Mommy wrap a present for Sally today! Mostly I just wanted to UNwrap the present, but at least I looked cute doing it!









After all that hard work, I settled in to do some drawing. I'm getting better and better at it!

Party Time!

We went to a Christmas party at Mommy's work yesterday. It was just for kids, and I had cookies and milk, and I got a toy! It was pretty fun.

I also got to color.



And there was a band there! I love music. Mommy says it puts me in a trance. I started out dancing in the back, but eventually moved all the way to the front of the stage with the big kids!







I also met a couple of Santa's friends, although I didn't meet the big man himself. Mommy and Daddy thought I'd be too intimidated. I wasn't sure about Santa's friends at all. I can't imagine the kinda guy who hangs out with these shady characters!

Pajama Day!

Yesterday Mommy stayed home from work and we had a pajama party! We had so much fun.

We played with the light sabers that Grandma Sandy gave me.


Although I had to explain the rules to Mommy again, AND convince her to put the dang camera away so we could play!


Then we danced and played and watched Elf!

Finally, just before bedtime (you can tell because I'm in different jammies), I showed Mommy & Daddy how smart I am!

Photo Hodgepodge!

Mommy took a lot of pictures today, so here are a few!







These are a couple of Mommy's favorites. She caught me reading one of my favorite books to Marley.

Playing in the Snow!

I played in the snow today! It was my first time and I had so much fun! I could have stayed outside all day, but Mommy thought it was pretty chilly and didn't want me to get too cold, so we went inside after about 20 minutes. Mommy took a lot of pictures. And yes, my boots are pink. Real men wear pink. Just ask my Uncle Rich & Grandpa Bob.

















When we went inside, Mommy let me lead the way. I showed her how I could find the right door!
