What Do You Mean 2007 Is Almost Over?

Merry Christmas!

This morning I awoke to find that Santa had come during the night and left me some presents. I was such a good boy this year. I got this cute Georgia chair and hat.

Christmas Eve

Great News, I got to open more presents today! Papa, Mama, and I went to Powder Springs for more Christmas celebrations. I got to see Honey, Grandad, and Aunt Jen first. Then Grandad's side of the family joined us. Later Honey's side of the family came over too. Wow, who new that I am related to so many people. When we got back home, Papa read us the story of Baby Jesus.

Christmas Eve Eve

Today, Papa, Mom, and I went to Church with my Grandma and Grandpa in Greenville. I got to meet so many new people including one of my blog fans Lynne. After church, I got to open some great Christmas gifts. Unwrapping gifts is apparently a natural talent of mine. I enjoyed hanging out with my grandparents, Aunt Kim, Brandon, and Riley.

Getting Ready For Christmas

Santa and his elves have been so busy getting ready for Christmas that they have not been very good bloggers lately.

My Pictures With Santa

I had my picture made with Santa way back in October so I am still very small in my pictures. My onesie says "Santa's Little Helper".

Magical Night of Lights

Papa and I took Mama to The Magical Night of Lights at Lake Lanier. We saw tons of lights and some beautiful Christmas trees. We even got to roast marshmallows. My favorite part was the live nativity.

December Heat Wave

Mom and I are savoring the current heat wave. We are enjoying long walks with me in my Baby Bjorn.

Roll Over Beethoven

Christmas On The Corner

Tonight we went to a special event at our church called Christmas on the Corner. I got to see a live Nativity. I also got to watch people roast marshmallows and ride on a train. I had my picture made with Rudolph and a Polar Bear (that really liked my Papa).

I Rode The Pink Pig!

Today after church, Mama, Papa, and I went to Lenox Mall so I could experience an Atlanta Christmas Tradition, riding The Pink Pig. After seeing all the animals in the parade yesterday, I was a little nervous when they told me I would be riding a pig named Priscilla. What a relief it was when I saw that "Priscilla" is really a train. I loved all the lights and Christmas trees in the big tent.

My First Parade

Today I went to my first parade. I was sleeping in the Baby Bjorn at first but the police sirens soon woke me and I was able to watch most of the parade. Uncle Holt and Papa kept playing over/under on how many tractors would be in the parade. There were several but I am awarding the #1 float prize to the man driving his little rascal scooter. I got to see my first live horses, camels, a cow, a donkey, and a stubborn goat that had to quit the parade right after he passed us. Otto (a.k.a. the Rock Star) was a crowd favorite, all the people in the parade kept telling him how cute he is. One of Jennie's friends that was in the parade gave me a teddy bear from Santa's toy bag. Overall it was a great time.

In This Crib, Weighing in At 12 pounds 7 ounces...

Today, I got to go see my Doctor again. I weigh 12 pounds 7 ounces and I am 24 inches tall. Mama said that I was so good at my appointment. I even got to show off a little bit by sitting up and holding my head super straight and tall for the doctor. Unfortunately, the penalty for being a show off at the doctor's office is 3 shots in your thighs. We all (me, Mama, Papa, and the nurse) did well with the shots. No one fainted and only one of us cried and it was just for a brief time. The morning before my appointment, I had Mama take a picture of me in the same striped onesie that I wore to my first Doctor's appointment so everyone could see how much I have grown. We took pictures after my appointment so everyone could see that I made it through all the shots. It is hard to see them in the pictures but I got two cute band aids one has a Bugs Bunny design, the other has a Daffy Duck design.

Sweet Sleeper

Here is a picture of my sleeping. Not very exciting to me but Mama said that you might enjoy it. She said something about me being a little angel. All I know is that I love my new skill of rolling onto my side. I was sleeping so good that Mama carried me into her room and laid me back down so she could take this picture.

Black Friday

Today, Mama, Papa, and I got up early and went shopping. Mama and Papa said that we were getting a late start because we did not leave the house until about 7AM. When we got back from shopping, Mama and Papa let me play in this cute Jumperoo. I am just a little too short for it right now but I love it. Papa got tired of me jumping on his legs so he put a little box under it for me.

Happy Thanksgiving

Today was my first Thanksgiving. I had a very busy day. We had Thanksgiving lunch made by Honey. Aunt Jen tried to help me carve the turkey but Papa had to finish the job. Then we had Thanksgiving dinner made by Grammy. I got to see some of my extended family in between my napping and eating. Here is short slideshow of me.

"I Wish They All Could Be Georgia Girls..."

Today I met Mikaela. She is a beautiful older (okay, just by one month) woman from California. Apparently she saw my blog and flew all the way to Georgia to meet me. Actually, her Grandma lives in Georgia too and is friends with my Honey. Not only is Mikaela beautiful, as you can tell by her blog, she is also smart. Check it out for yourself (http://www.mikaelasmoments.blogspot.com/). I also got to spend some time today with all four of my grandparents and both of my aunts.

Georgia vs. Kentucky

I finally got to go to my first Georgia home game. I had brunch at Five Star Day Cafe downtown. Then we went to the Dawg walk which is a huge pregame pep rally where I got to see UGA VI, the Red Coat Band, the Georgia cheerleaders, and of course the Georgia football players. Once we got in the stadium, everyone was glad to see me. Papa had promised everyone at the last home game that I would come to this game. All day long people kept talking about how cute my Georgia shoes were. Unfortunately most people missed my cute shirt that said "Put Me In Coach - Georgia - Pint Sized Impact Player" since I was riding in the Baby Bjorn. The Dawgs won 24-13. After the game, I got to ring the chapel bell with a little help from Papa. I hope that you enjoy the video that Papa helped me make (okay I slept while he made it, but I AM JUST A BABY).
