Day 2 Ohio Trip Tuesday, December 23, 2008

Day 2 Ohio Trip Tuesday, December 23, 2008 When I woke up, I could not believe my eyes. I found Mermaid Thomas at Grandma and Grandpas house.

This year our family has started a new tradition called The Elf on the Shelf . Elf on the Shelf is a little elf doll that reports directly to Santa Claus. Kids can tell the elf their Christmas wishes. Here's how it works. Mr. Elf comes to visit your home during the holidays. He watches over the home and reports back good deeds to Santa each night. The next morning he comes back and sits in a new location. Your kids get to search him out each day. On Christmas Eve he returns to the North Pole and stays their until next year.

Grandma Denise enjoying every hug she can get from me.

Grandpa hugs. My mom really needs to get my hair cut because I really miss my curls.

Mom read my mind and look my curls magically appeared.

Aunt Suzy and Uncle Drew arrived around 2am. today.

Uncle Drew is still adjusting to the time change and having two loud mouths around. Look at me!

Building a castle with my Uncle Drew.

Great Grandpa Al came over for a pre Christmas dinner.

Second cousin Jenny joined in the fun too.

Great Aunt Mary Beth just loves babies.

We Have Arrived Day 1 Ohio Trip Monday, December 22, 2008

We Have Arrived Day 1 Ohio Trip Monday, December 22, 2008 This is my second plane ride and I am doing so well. My sister is enjoying her movie and I have enjoyed looking out the window, watching parts of Little Mermaid, eating and loving on my daddy.

This may be a free flight for me but I am a growing boy, so can I please have my own cup too.

We have arrived and are very excited to be in Ohio with Grandma Denise and Grandpa Bob. There is snow on the ground and very very cold. So cold that a water line busted in the airport.

Look what I found when I arrived to grandma and grandpas house! Now I do not have to sleep with mommy and daddy. Mommy and daddy were just as excited as I was, I wonder why?

Getting ready for our Ohio Trip Pre-Christmas Sunday, December 21st.

Getting ready for our Ohio Trip Pre-Christmas Sunday, December 21, 2008 Princess stuff and we all know how much I love Princesses.

A soccer ball and I am already practicing to be goalie!

For some reason my sister really enjoyed opening my Christmas gifts. She even enjoyed playing with them more than I did, well that was until I learned how to use them.

Calling Grandma Linda and Grandpa Bob to thank them for my cell phone.

This was one of my favorite toys and I am not sure if it is because my sister did not have any interest in it or because it can move with me.
