christmas eve

i am probably the last person to post about christmas on their blog...oh well...better late than never! on christmas eve we went over to grandma's house and ate the traditional chinese dinner on her china. it is such a fun tradition! we ended up staying over until 9:00 and jack didn't get to bed until 9:30!! crazy!!

opening the first gift of the christmas season!

sonny got him a really cool truck that has an electric screwdriver that really works. jack was obsessed and still is!

he got a lot of gifts from tia, molly, and darryl. he got dinosaur puppets, a dinosaur book, and a handy manny book. he also got a lot of great presents from grandma, but i didn't get any pictures of them

we drew names this year so we got on speaker phone with mary, molly, and darryl to make it feel like we were all together. i got a new vera bradley diaper bag that darryl picked out (it is the same pattern that my purse is and he didn't even know it!) i love it!! johnny got a i pad case from jimmy (he got an i pad from me and my parents for christmas).

here are a few random pictures from before christmas....
wearing his papa's truck shirt

watching the video that santa sent him

kiss

jack has been making a kiss noise when he gives us a kiss lately...it is too cute!
i promise my finger didn't taste bad...it had cinnamon toast crunch on it and i guess he didn't like that feeling on his tongue??

santa picture 2010

jack doesn't look very happy, but i think he was. i just think that he was shy and very serious!

zoolight safari

he did NOT want to take a picture!

we went to zoolight safari sunday night. it was super cold, but fun! we got hot chocolate with marshmallows...that made jack really happy!

watching the music light show

war eagle!

jack HAD to take his picture behind the lion. he begged us to get out of his stroller so that he could have his picture taken. it was really funny to me. he was saying "roar" in the picture.

riding the carousel...he is funny because he really wants to ride on it and then once he gets up to the animals he gets scared and doesn't want to ride. so they sat on the bench and he was perfectly content!

we went to the mcwane center on saturday to let jack play in the snow and see the trains.

he loves to climb the stairs
