Over a month Late

I have been a major blog slacker lately and its because I find the task of going over our Christmas festivities daunting and have a hard time feeling like I can move on without making note of Christmas. So this morning, when my baby is being wonderful and quietly playing with the garbage (don't worry folks its empty and recently sanitized) I thought I need to just sit down and trudge through this. It will be quick and dirty.

I think one of the most important and exciting things that happened over the holidays was the on Christmas Eve Jack got his first 2 teeth. They are so cute! A two tooth smile is the cutest and most heart meltingest smile on the face of the earth. Unfortunately we have yet to capture a picture of it because Jack just refuses to be cute when the camera is on and he notices it. But this morning I forced a glimpse into his mouth.

You can see me prying his mouth open here as he screams and pushes me away. Sorry its blurry but atleast you can see the two adorable teethies.

Now I'll move on with the Christmas festivities. Christmas Eve we spent at Branden's parents house, we had a delicious dinner and lots of fun there. Jack was totally adorable playing with his cousin Dorian.


And opening presents from his Grandma and Grandpa. He got some super cute outfits and a really nice, warm stroller blankety thing.


Christmas day we spent with my family. We had a wonderful breakfast and then opened presents. Jack loved all the multitudes of paper he was able to play with there. It was a HUGE challenge for his Grandpa to not immediately whisk all paper right into the trash, but anything for a grandson right.

Jack got some great presents, adorable clothes and a walker toy and other random toys from his Grandma and Grandpa. A Little People nativity scene and cute Christmas outfits from his Aunt and Uncle and the softest, best blanket ever that he LOVES to rub on his face from his Great Aunt and Uncle who came over to visit later in the day.

Jack with my cousin Zach's girlfriend Kiera. They had matching outfits, I thought it was adorable and Jack seriously adores Kiera as you can tell from his face.

With his cousin Thomas in the matching outfits Aunt Sarah made them.

After presents we had a delicious dinner and then let the boys play. Jack loved the giant box Grandma and Grandpa's new tv came in. We made him a fort.


All in all Jack's first Christmas was great!
