This morning I rolled around on the floor, played and did a little work under the hood of my swing while Kai and Finn helped Mama out at the grocery store and the hardware store. They get to do lots of fun stuff but I sure did have fun at home playing with Daddy!











When we got home from our errands with Mama, our friends Aidan and Rowan came over to play with us. We were so happy to see them and show them all of the fun toys that Santa and our family brought us for Christmas. Then, we were so happy because they stayed and had lunch with us and we all ate it all up!









Later, Auntie Nay Nay came over for a little while to borrow our drill. Then we had a super duper yummy dinner and afterward Mama, Jax and I had a dance party. We had so much fun and baby Jax laughed and laughed. Then it was bath time and we got to snuggle up in our pj's afterward to watch Happy New Year Charlie Brown before bed time. It was a good day!

Today was a rainy, cold, dreary day outside so we hunkered down in the house. While Mama and Daddy got to work organizing our drawers, doing laundry, painting chairs, cleaning, and watching a little football, Finn and I got to work playing with all of our great new toys that we got for Christmas, doing puzzles and making chalk pictures to hang on the wall. Jax did a lot of hanging out and then when he went to bed for the night, Mama and Daddy let Finn and I watch the movie Turbo. It was a fun Sunday!

This morning Kai and I got to watch a new Spider Man show that Mama downloaded for us on tv. It was so cool, we loved it!



Then Nana, Papi and Grand Papi came over for our weekly Dunkin Donuts breakfast visit. Even though I don't get to actually have any of the delicious, sugary snacks, at least I get to visit with everyone! And I sure had a nice time seeing them!











After our visit, Finn and I spent the remainder of the afternoon outside playing since it was so nice and sunny outside. Our friend Dae came over to play with us and Mama set up our automatic baseball pitcher for Finn and I to practice our batting. It sure was fun. The weather was so nice that we even got to eat our lunch outside.







Later, after naps, Daddy and Mama took us out for a pizza dinner. It was so much fun. We even got to see the pizza man kneading the dough and tossing the pizza into the air before he topped it and cooked it. Then we went to Baskin Robins for dessert. It was YUMMY, and we even got to see some firemen and their firetruck parked outside! It was a great day and an even better evening!!!

This morning we were so sad because Daddy had to go to work but he promised that it wouldn't be for long! So, we packed up and headed to Ta Ta Orly's house for a visit. Our cousins were there and Ema was there and Grandma was there. We had tons of fun. Ta Ta Orly and the kids gave my brothers and I some really nice new gifts! My brothers played with blocks and showed the big kids some of their Christmas gifts, like Kai's Angry Birds Telepods. Then they played a little hide and seek. I don't think my brothers were very good hiders today...We put Grandma in a giant bird cage and ate lunch and just had lots of fun. It was a great day.























                





Later Daddy helped me put together some legos and played with me. Finn got to eat a pear and then he decided to scoot himself all the way in a corner behind the couch. That is one crazy baby! Then Finn and I got to watch The Polar Express movie. It was a great, much needed Friday night at home!





             

               

               

This morning we woke up and headed to Aunt Cindy and Uncle BJ's house to celebrate the holidays with our cousins. We had fun opening gifts, playing with all of Griggs and Bray's new toys that they got from Santa and eating breakfast together. Then we got to go outside and play with the new jungle gym swing set that Santa brought for our cousins. We had a blast this morning.

















After nap time we packed it up again and headed to Aunt Carol and Uncle Jay's house to hang out with our family. We ate dinner, we had snacks, we had candy and cupcakes. It was tons of fun. Then Kai and I ran around with JoJo, Charley and Bella chasing our big cousins around the house. It was another great night. Boy are we exhausted!

Today is CHRISTMAS!! We were so excited when we woke up to find that Santa left us lots of gifts. I guess we really were good boys this year! We opened our gifts from Santa, then MeMaw and PopPop came over and we got to open more gifts from them. We are so lucky, we got so many nice things!

              

































                

Then our Nana, Papi, Great Grand Papi and Aunties came over to celebrate Christmas with us. We ate breakfast and opened even more presents. We are really the luckiest little boys in the whole, wide world! Later our Aunties relaxed with us and watch Despicable Me 2 that Santa brought for us. It was lots of fun. We also played with our toys and just relaxed.

































Later after my nap we all headed to Grandma and Granddaddy's house to do more playing and Christmas day celebrating. It was a wonderful day!

Today is Christmas Eve! And for us that means the action begins. We all got up in the morning and headed to Grandma and Granddaddy's house. We played, the big people all got to eat a super, yummy lunch, we napped...well, I did, we hung out with our family, we opened presents and just had a really nice morning!























While Finn and Jax napped we got all ready and I headed to church with Mama and Granddaddy. Afterward we came home, picked everyone up and headed to Uncle Jimmy's house for the second Christmas Eve celebration of the day. We had lots of fun hanging out with our family. Then Santa Clause came!! He brought us the coolest gifts and he knew exactly what we wanted. Santa really is magical!

































When we left Uncle Jimmy's house, we dropped Daddy and Jax at home so that baby Jax could go to sleep, and then Mama took Kai and I to Nana and Papi's house for our third Christmas Eve celebration of the night! We had fun for a little while, then we remembered that Santa doesn't bring presents for little boys that are still awake and suddenly Kai and I were very, extremely sleepy! When we got home Ellie the Elf had written us a note and helped us leave some snacks for Santa and his reindeer. Then it was time to head to bed so that we could be ready for all the goodies Santa was going to leave us during the night! Mama let us hear Nana read us "The Night Before Christmas" book and then it was time to go to sleep. We have a big day coming up!












               

This morning we got up and Daddy took Kai, Finn and I to MeMaw and PopPop's house for breakfast. Our cousins Griggs and Bray were there too. We played with toys and MeMaw and PopPop spoiled us rotten. We had so much fun!!!

             

              

                 

                

      























Later I got to go to Aidan's house with Mama for a little play date while Jax and Finn napped. Then we had a super yummy dinner at home and Finn and I got to sample some of our Christmas cookies for dessert. Yum, Yum!! Then Mama and Daddy told us that tomorrow is Christmas Eve and we can't wait. It's going to be a super fun day, we can tell.

This morning we took a family trip to the new Safeway to do some grocery shopping for Christmas breakfast. Kai and I had a ton of fun running around and "helping" Mama and Daddy. Jax just hung out in the cart and was a good baby, as usual. When we got home Kai and I got to help Mama make cookies. We rolled out the dough, we cut out the shapes and then, when they were cooled off, Mama iced them and let us decorate them any way we wanted. It was so much fun. And tasty!!













Later Finn, Daddy, Jax and I played board games and played with blocks and read books. Then I got to play with the iPad for a little while. It was a great night at home with my family!

This morning Nana, Papi and Great Grand Papi came over and brought us Dunkin Donuts! Then when they left we played outside for a while. I asked Mama if it was Summer time outside because it was so warm. Finn and I played on the sand table and with chalk. It was lots of fun. Later I got to play outside with Aidan and his cousins until it was time to go home for dinner. It was a good Saturday!

This morning MeMaw and PopPop made a quick surprise visit and we were so happy to see them. Then we headed outside to play football with Daddy while baby Jax took a little cat nap!



















While Finn and Jax took their afternoon nap I got to go run a few errands with Mama. We had fun. I also got a new camoflage hat and some cars stickers! Then we came home, got everyone together and headed to Homestead Gardens to meet Grandma and Granddaddy. We checked out all the cool decorations and the trains and the beautiful Christmas lights on all the trees and bushes outside. It was so cool.





















After Homestead we went to Outback for dinner with Grandma and Granddaddy. We had lots of fun. Everyone had a nice meal and we all got to spend some time together. It was a fun evening!

Today was so much fun because Kai's friend Guyer came over to play with us. Kai and Guyer were really nice to me because they let me play with them the whole time. We played in the play room and in Kai's room. We helped Mama make chocolate chip cookies, then we got to help eat them! We showed Guyer our email videos from Santa and his elves. We ate lunch together. We played board games and we played Super Hero's Memory. We had such a fun play date. I hope we can do it again real soon!

Today was a pretty low key day. We played, we painted, we colored. You know, the usual.





Daddy only had to work for a little while today so when he got home, we all got ready and headed to Columbia to see the Symphony of Lights. I didn't really get a whole lot out of it but my brothers and parents really seemed to enjoy it. After the lights we headed to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner. We had a lot of fun and everyone really enjoyed themselves. It sure was a fun night hanging out with my family!

Today Daddy was home with us so we all went to the Sky Zone in Columbia. We got to jump and play ball and jump into the foam pit. I had fun but Finn barely did any jumping. I guess he was just shy or scared...

















I just keep getting caught eating my Ginger Bread House. I mean, what's the point of having a house made out of cookies and covered with icing and candy if you can't eat it?











After dinner, Mama and Daddy got us all bundled up and we went for a walk through our neighborhood to look at Christmas lights. We had fun. My big brothers got to run around and look at some of the lights and reindeer. After a while I was just cold and tired and ready to go home, so, that's what we did. But it sure was cool checking out all those bright lights!

Today Mama let us decorate our gingerbread houses. We had so much fun!! I love decorating my house. Finn loved eating all his candy. Mama and Daddy said that I did a great job and that our houses looked amazing. I am very proud of mine. I wish I could take it around and show everyone but Daddy and Mama said that it would break so we have to just take pictures to show everyone instead. I hope everyone likes it!



















Today I had carrots. Yum!



After nap time we all got ready and went to Nana and Papi's house for dinner to celebrate Auntie Nay Nay's Birthday. She's 30 years old. That's really old! We had a yummy dinner. We played with Papi and Grand Papi. We blew out candles and we ate cake. It was a perfect night for me!

Today we were all exhausted. We did a lot of lounging around the house. Mama ran some errands and we all just did a lot of relaxing. We played with the iPad. We watched movies and we played games. Kai and I played memory matching games with Mama and we had lots of fun. We all needed a day to recover from our busy weekend!

This morning Mama took Kai and I to the library to get books and we were surprised to find out that they were having a zoo animals program downstairs. We got there right on time! Kai took a seat on a mat right in the front row. I was a little shy so I stayed in the chair with Mama. We got to see some very interesting animals and learned all about their different habitats. We met a 15 year old tortious from the dessert. We met a snake from the grasslands. We met a falcon that was found injured in Baltimore and we met a porcupine from the rain forests of South America. It was very cool!

























After we got our books Mama took Finn and I to Home Depot with her. We love Home Depot. There are lots of tools and crazy things that we could get into so much trouble with there and we LOVE it! Then, Mama and Daddy got everything together for our Friendsgiving/Holiday Party. Lots of Mama and Daddy's friends came over and they brought their kids and we were so happy they did.



























Even I had a great time at the party. There were so many fun people to look at. I was a good baby as usual. My brothers got to run around and play with lots of kids and I even went to sleep for most of the party. But I did get up right at the end. I was a hungry little monkey!
