Not knowing what the weather would bring on Christmas Day, we did some of our Christmas festivities on Christmas Eve.  Mimi and Poppy came over and Daniel opened presents.  He is ready to go!

Wow!  So many to choose from.

Enjoying a musical card from Mimi and Poppy.

Daniel loves all his new kitchen gadgets and condiments from Mimi and Poppy.

Pretty cute peering down into the giant Mr Potato Head.

Daniel sporting some cute Christmas Eve curls.

We had a good lunch at a buffet.  Daniel had some of his favorites: chicken, lima beans, green beans and peas.

This morning Daniel was playing with the Charlie Brown magnets from the refrigerator.

Poppy and Mama took Daniel on Monday to get pictures for Christmas.  I will post them when we get them back next week. Here Daniel is all dressed for his pictures and has on his heavy coat to go out on such a cold morning. Winnie the Pooh went with him in the car.

The Friday after Thanksgiving, Mimi and Poppy came over and helped us put up the Christmas tree.  Daniel is very excited about having a big tree this year.

Daniel, Mama, Papa, Mimi and Poppy went to a restaurant for Thanksgiving lunch.  Daniel is all dressed up to go in his cute little overalls.  He played us a tune on the harmonica.

Some of Daniel’s pretend phone conversations can be very interesting.  Part way through this video he first calls Papa and says “Me” and hangs up.  Then he calls Papa and says “Papa, need some more meat and lima beans.”  At the end of the video he wants to “watch monkeys jump on bed” which is referring to videos of the rhyme “Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed”.

My little angel asleep in the car. He just couldn’t sleep in his bed for his nap today. He has his foo and his best buddy Bunny.

The teething has been a long road.  The top right second molar finally came in on September 29.  The last tooth, the top left molar just came in yesterday.  Daniel still has some discomfort with it, but we now know this should clear up very soon.

Daniel was singing more of the Winnie the Pooh song, but gets distracted by the camera.  At least he did a little bit for the camera after saying the alphabet.
