My First Christmas!

I had such an amazing first Christmas.  It all started with a Christmas party at my school.  My mom dressed me up and I was the only one dressed up (thanks Mom...).  Then Christmas Eve we went to my Great Grandma Norma's house and I saw my dad's whole family.  I got all sorts of goodies including a Radio Flyer bouncy horse (there's a video of me on it below).  Christmas Day we went to Grandma and Grandpa Frattallone's where I got even more presents!  Then the weekend after Christmas, we went to Marshall to Grandma and Grandpa Anderson's house and I got more presents.  Lastly, we had Grandma Ali over in January with Uncle Erik and Aunt Jacci and Claire and Cooper for my fifth and final Christmas celebration...whew!  That was a lot.  But I'm having so much fun playing with all my new toys. 

Let's see...what new things can I do now?  Oh I just recently started pulling myself up to stand and I do it ALL the time.  Mom and Dad are really starting to find out what pieces are furniture are not good for babies so I imagine I'll see some more sturdy pieces gradually making their way into the house soon.  I also have a really high pitched scream that I like to do...not because I'm mad, just because it's fun to see everyone's reaction.  I also started drinking out of a sippy.  My parents have been giving me a sippy for 4 months but I never drank from it; I just threw it on the ground which was way more fun than drinking from it.  Oh and at school for lunch, they have me sit at the big kid's table (it's a small table really) and they put my food on a plate and everything now.  Yesterday I thought it would be funny to throw my plate on the floor though so my lunch was cut a bit short :)

Enjoy the pictures!  The next update will probably be after my first birthday party next month...one year old all ready...can you believe it?  Neither can my mom and dad :)

My parents thought it would be funny to tie a napkin around my head...not sure what they were thinking...

 

 

This is my cousin Claire (aka Hannah Montana)

 

And this is her dad

 

This is the group that made homemade bread...it was tasty...I was sleeping during all this.
