Cousins and Christmas! Perfect. And all with a None Horse Open Sleigh presented at Great Aunt Gail's house. Abbie, Ava, Camille and Gracie managed to all keep their eyes open at the same time! Miracles do happen. Photo by Gracie's Mommy, Erin.

Mommy snapped my picture just before I began to discreetly, daintily, and delicately open this Christmas present. Yeah, right. Let me at it!

Here I am Christmas morning having a heart to heart with Grandpa Dave. I think he said something about all those presents behind us not being specifically just for me. He's a great kidder. Photo by Grandma Sue.

Imagine that! Nana just whispered to me that Santa Claus is coming tonight! Tonight! I'm flabbergasted.

Wow! This is really neat! Mommy says that it's Baby Jesus' birthday, but I get the presents! Wait a minute! Does this mean he'll get the presents on my birthday, next February 21st?

Okay, this should get some comments. On the left is Emily and behind me is Kaitlyn. They are sisters. Are you with me so far? They are the daughters of my Mommy's cousin. I think they are my second cousins but I'm kind of new to this. We had fun at our family Christmas party anyway. If you think they should be called something other than second cousins, write and let me know.

Oh boy! What a dilemma! I just got this new book that I haven't read yet, but I do love to play with wrapping paper. What to do, what to do? Photo by Grandma Diane.

Great Grandmother Ollie holding me at our Christmas party at Grand Uncle Paul and Grand Aunt Carol's house, I think. Isn't it grand? Kind of confusing for me. Who cares? It's great fun anyway! (Psst! Look closely and you might just see my first tooth!)

What? Are you kidding me? He's the REAL Santa Claus? Go on!

No more pictures, please, Papa! I've been under these hot lights for hours and had to change my outfits I don't know how many times! Enough is enough! I didn't think "Papa" was supposed to be short for paparazzi.

Here I am face to face with the reportedly ferocious Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer in deepest, darkest Exeter. He'd better watch out. I'm about to pop my first tooth any day now! Photo by Laurie, Matthew's Mom. We stayed warm in her house waiting for the Santa parade.

Mommy snapped my picture while I was enjoying a bath in my new bath seat. It keeps me safe. By the way, does anyone know why the French make such a big deal about frog's legs? To me, they taste like chicken, with just a hint of soap sauce.

I'm not sure who this man is, but at least he was jolly. Thank goodness I could still see Mommy and Daddy or I'd have been a little more concerned. Photo by some elf. Photoshopped by Papa.

Mommy photographed me at my new activity station. She says Nana Santa brought it to me early so I could pull myself upright. I played here for over two hours trying to learn all the things I can do here. Now that I'm nine months old I have a lot more responsibilities.

Here I am just before my 9 month birthday with Mommy and Daddy. Daddy's tickling me and Mommy's trying to stifle a laugh. Not me. I just let the fun happen.

Papa kept asking me to look into the camera. I see him hiding behind something. Can anyone tell me what a camera is?

Mommy had fun holding me so I could have my picture taken. I enjoyed it too.

Mommy told me this hat came all the way from Belgium. I have no idea where that is, but do you think it makes me look too old and sophisticated?

Here I am after all my trick or treating. Grammy Sue took my picture as I was exploring some of the gifts I got instead of candy. They haven't explained what candy is to me yet. Wonder if it's like the ice cream they let me taste at the fair.

Mommy took this picture of me sitting up trying to decide which toy to play with next. It's difficult choosing, but I do like posing for a camera.
