Yar-tide Greetings

Here is Alexander on Christmas morning, tearing open a couple presents at home.



Then we went to grandma and grandpa’s. (Of course, we had to change into a Christmas outfit first. Grandma showed great self-control in not getting him anything that required antlers or elf ears as an accessory.)



(Due to the drool bib, you can’t see that his green outfit says “Baby’s First Christmas”. The velour seemed to just increase his rate of drool… and who can blame him?)

The next day, we traveled to Iowa to meet Santa…


We had an unexpected overnight due to the weather. So Alexander ended up wearing the same clothes for 2 days. Once he got home and got naked, it sure felt good. Ooooh yeah!



Alexander’s toy inventory has increased by 1200%. It’s a great haul, but if this trend continues we estimate that by 2012 Hasbro will complete its take-over on our house and we will be sleeping in the garage. But guess who will be happy?

Great to see Alexander and Santa together! We loved hosting Alexander's first overnight, and hope none of you were too much the worse for wear... Come and see us again!
