Happy Christmas week to everyone!
Joe and I kicked off our Christmas celebrations this past weekend with our annual Christmas lunch at his grandparents.
Conner has reached the age where it's fun to take him to family events because for the most part he's past his shyness stage and ready to interact and play with his cousins. He even gets excited to go see his great papa and nana. The whole ride there, all we hear is Conner in the back seat singing "papa and nana. papa and nana..".
Love that kid.
We ate enough food to fill our bellies for the next two days, and I ate enough desserts to last the rest of the year. But, I'll still eat more Christmas cookies, because hey, tis the season. Right?
So after stuffing ourselves with roast beef, ham, deviled eggs, brussel sprouts (Joe's grandma makes the best) and everything else imaginable, we moved on to watch the kids open gifts.
Conner loved his gift from the great grandparents. He got a little tool kit with a toy drill, hammer and screws and bolts. Certainly his new favorite toy. And he got a new toothbrush that he carried around in his mouth for the remaining afternoon. Kid loves brushing his teeth.
It's so fitting that he loves his toothbrush since Aunt Shannon and Uncle Ken pointed out that if you put an elf hat on him, he looks like Herbie from the Rudolph and the Island of Misfits. Sorry, kiddo, they have a point there.
Linden did his thing by chillin' and napping on Aunt Shan for pretty much the whole time. Boy does a great job at relaxing during family jams.
