Merry Christmas!

Sean was so excited; I think he woke up around 5am and then went back to sleep.

Got a Heckler & Koch MP5 - what every other 3-year-old wants.

I can't believe it was all over so quickly.

Opening Christmas Presents

Jack gets to watch it all from his blankie in the middle of the room.

Sean has his I'm-busy-smile.

Onto the next one! We had a pretty relaxing Christmas and hope y'all did too.

Best. Christmas. Photo. Ever.

Well, it's at least in the top 10...

It's Christmas Eve!

Momma & Jack

Sometimes Sean prefers to be behind the camera. He does a pretty good job too. Here's a rare photo of me & Jack together.

More Presents at Grandma's House!

Christmas Morning!

O Tannenbaum!

We finally got our Christmas tree! Sean really like it and all the ornaments. Hopefully he won't be taking any of them off...

Santa? No, Thank You

I was soooo looking forward to this evening because our friends Thai & Huy invited us to their neighborhood for Santa, a reindeer, and some snow (from a snow machine, of course). I had planned to get pictures of Sean in the snow for our Christmas card. (Coming to a mailbox near you!) So Sean and I went out there, but the snow was really packed ice and Sean didn't like it. Then once we got to Santa, I told Sean I was going to put him in Santa's lap, but he said no. So they just shook hands instead.

Thai and Huy already had their Christmas tree up so they offered to let us take Sean's pictures there for our card. (Thank you so much!)

Who Needs Baby Einstein? We've Got Baby Mozart!

Sean received this cute little toy piano as a Christmas gift from Lolo and Lola. It's the perfect size for him until we get a real one.

Merry Christmas!

Grandma and Grandpa came down for a quick visit.

Let's get started on the presents!

Lemme at 'em!

Oooooh, a new book! I wonder how it tastes?

This little piggy passes the taste test...

A Visit From Tio Jeff

Sean finally got to meet his uncle Jeff. Unfortunately, Jeff couldn't stay for very long so we'll have to continue his diaper-changing training at the next visit. ;)

A Bedtime Story for Christmas

Daddy reads Sean's bedtime story. Usually Sean tries to eat the book, but sometimes he's calm and listens to the story.

Christmas Shopping

Sean and I were getting some Christmas shopping done when he had to try out this cute little chair. We went very early in the morning to avoid most of the crowds, and we're almost done. We got Daddy's present too, but it's a secret!

Christmas Card Photos

I finally got around to taking Sean's pictures for our Christmas card. At first, Sean was paying attention...

But what's this?

Oh, yeah, Mommy. I'm paying attention...

In the end, the present from Grandma & Grandpa won out.

Finally! We got our blog started....

Well, I'm at 23 weeks and I've finally got our baby blog started! Here is a picture of my belly. Yeah, it's huge, but I'm only 5 feet tall. So baby doesn't have much room and has to go out. I've also posted our first official belly picture. This was taken on Christmas Eve in Munich, Germany.
