CJ's First Christmas

It's Christmas morning!! CJ is ready to help make breakfast...


CJ's first Christmas...and CJ's first time having eggs! And he loved them.


What should we open first?


It's a huge lion from Grandpa Peter!


And what about that big box?


Cool, a zebra...



1-2-3, can you rock and count with me?



What baby doesn't have an Elmo phone?


Future rock star in the making...



These are the coolest little cars.




Ready for the snow storm that will hit us tomorrow!


After all the presents had been opened, dad put the zebra together. CJ was a natural!






By day 2, CJ had figured out how to operate this toy all by himself.






On the way back to Grandma's for lunch on Christmas day.


Where, of course, there were more presents.



After getting sick all over his adorable rudolph shirt, we had to change CJ into dad's very first Christmas outfit. Thank goodness they both have the same name.




Many more pictures from Christmas day are on the Shutterfly site.

Christmas Eve

Here's CJ waiting for dad to get ready to leave for Grandma's house for Christmas Eve dinner. He can't wait to open this big present tomorrow!


CJ is fascinated by the ball ornaments.



At Grandma's house, CJ got ahold of this Christmas present early!


He loves to climb...


And the ornaments again...


Don't let the pajamas fool you. CJ is going to be a party animal. He was up at Grandma's the whole night before crashing when we got home at 11:30. More pictures from the evening on Shutterfly.

CJ Meets Santa

Merry Christmas! CJ met Santa today.

He got a nice scrape on his forehead when he decided to slam his head against his crib at daycare yesterday just in time for this photo! Mom tried to cover it up with make-up but it didn't quite work...

And a couple other miscellaneous holiday photos:
