Santa! Santa!



Christmas morning, I asked Christopher if he wanted to go see what Santa left him and this was his beautiful face. I just happened to catch it on camera at the right moment. Every time I would say, "Santa, Santa!" He would burst out laughing.






He always looks so different to me in pictures. He has so many different expressions and 1 minute he looks like a little baby and the next a big boy. We sure do love him!




The Sunday before Christmas, we got together with my college friends. Christopher loved being around all the other children and the best was that he got to see Santa again. He loves to pull on his beard and climb all over him. Santa made a special trip to the party to see all the children and brought a gift for everyone.

Later after Santa got to relax, Christopher was still so excited, that he dropped his drawers for him. It was hilarious! My friends turned the Christmas party into a mini surprise baby shower for Christopher. So he got double the gifts.


It seems as if Christopher is always fighting off some type of bug. When we got home on Christmas night, he woke up from a short nap with a 104.2 fever. Here we go again! We are back on breathing treatments and throwing up due to snot is once again a daily activity in our lives. How does a baby who mostly stays home get all these bugs? We are off to the doctor in the morning. What will the diagnosis be this time?

Hope everyone had a great Christmas!
