Merry Christmas!

Christmas was a lot of fun this year.  I had a blast opening up gifts and spending time with my grandparents and aunts & uncles.  I was definitely spoiled!!!  My brother Davin and I both got lots of clothes and toys but my 2 favorite gifts are in the pictures below:

My first tricycle!

My own motorized quad!

Santa Clause came early?

Santa Clause came to visit us early this year.  Not only did he come early, but he came in a much different way than I hear about in Christmas songs.  Mommy says Santa upgraded his ride to keep up with technology.  Well, I guess he's not totally keeping up with technology, but when he came to visit me yesterday he arrived in a helicopter.  Our friends Eric (who is a CHP - California Highway Patrol officer), Jennifer and Brody invited us to the CHP office to meet Santa early.  It was really fun to wave at Santa while he circled in the air and then landed in the helicopter.  When it was my turn I sat on Santa's lap and told him I wanted a "choo-choo" for Christmas.  He gave me my first candy cane and also a present with my name on it!  I was really surprised he knew my name!  (shhh....this is mom....we pre-wrapped a gift for him to recieve from Santa! ha!)  Here are some fun pictures from the event:

Oh, and mommy let me eat my first candy cane when we got home. Yum! See my sticky fingers?!

Lots of Snow!!!

We had a really big snow storm yesterday.  We woke up to a little snow on the ground and by the end of the day this is what it looked like at our house!

Our backyard

I haven't really ever had a chance to play in snow.  Although it was cold I really enjoyed playing in it.  Did you know that you can eat it?  (At least it was fresh and clean!!!!)  Once I found that out, that was all I really wanted to do!  Daddy had a really good time too.  Uncle Shawn decided to pull him behind the quad on his snowboard.  They rode around the neighborhood for awhile.  Boys will always be boys!

My 1st Haircut

I just had my first haircut!  Mommy and Daddy took me to Snip-Its.  They had toys, cartoons, and really fun things to look at there.  At first I wasn't too sure about what was going on, but since I got to sit in a fun seat, had my own T.V. to watch cartoons and got some cookies, I figured this couldn't be all bad!  I was really brave and didn't cry at all.  In fact, I kept telling mommy that it "Tick" (i.e. tickled) while they were cutting my hair.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving this year was at Nana and Papa DeBernard's house in Phoenix.  We had a great time eating Turkey and hanging out with the family.  We went to Zoolights, the park and Papa even took me to my first Hockey game to see the Phoenix Coyotes!  I had a blast dancing to the music and of course eating popcorn!  My brother Davin was too little to go to the Hockey game so he had to go shopping all day with Mommy..... blah!

Zoolights with Daddy!

Davin's first Thanksgiving he pretty much just slept through!
