Christmas in GA
I realized that I forgot to post pictures of our trip to GA to visit my grandmother. So, here they are. We had a good time visiting and Aaron was spoiled rotten. He especially loved his Christmas present from Grandmother which was a LeapFrog Table that has all sorts of song on it and English and Spanish singing. It did not take him anytime at all to figure it all out. Still to date his favorite part is turning the page of the book.


Playing with his new toy. What fun.

My new wagon
I think I mentioned earlier that Aaron loves his new wagon he got for Christmas from Caleb's parents. We take him for a ride in it almost everyday, even inside when its too cold out. Here are some pictures of Uncle Brian and Aunt Jen giving Aaron a ride on a cold day. If it really snows today, I might have to bundle him up and take him out in his wagon. One might say it could be his first sled ride. Lets hope for snow.

Christmas Eve and Christmas Morning (part 1)
We continued the tradition of spending Christmas Eve with Caleb's family at his Grandparent's house. We enjoyed a delicious dinner with his parents, brother, grandparents, aunt and uncle and cousins. Afterwards, Aaron continued to be the center of attention as he opened his first Christmas presents. To no surprise, he was more interested in the paper and the bows than most of the presents, even though he got some cool toys.
Christmas morning we went over to Caleb's parents house and had Christmas breakfast and exchanged gifts. Aaron especially enjoyed his new wagon from Caleb's parents. He loved wagon rides from the beginning and still enjoys them everyday. Even around the house on cold days.

Aaron's First Christmas
Now that Christmas is almost a month behind us, I guess it is time to update everyone with stories and pics from our first Christmas with Aaron. I have a lot to catch up on, so I guess I will start with coming back from Thanksgiving in Pittsburgh. As you know, we all came back from spending Thanksgiving with Caleb's family in Pittsburgh. A couple days later, Caleb flew back up to Pittsburgh for work for 4 weeks. It was suppose to be a 3 week project, but they asked him to come back for a fourth week. He was able to come home on weekends, thankfully. Surprisingly, the 4 weeks went better than either one of use expected. I spent most of the time going back and forth between High Point and mom and dad's in Charlotte. It was nice to have the company and help, but it was also exhausting. Aaron and I got off our schedule which was especially hard at night. Being out of his own bed, and with other's around at night, sleeping through the night was not happening. Thankfully, that has changed now and we are sleeping through the night again!!! After 3 weeks of going back and forth and missing Caleb we took a trip to my grandmothers in GA. Caleb flew into Greensboro Friday night and I drove up from Charlotte to pick him up. We then went to Dixon Hughes Christmas dinner and enjoyed a good meal as we waited for Caleb's luggage to catch up to him. After the dinner we drove back to Charlotte and left Saturday morning for my Grandmothers. We had a good time with my family and was so glad that my parents and Brian and Jen were able to go with us. First thing Tuesday morning, Caleb flew back to Pittsburgh and I hung out with my parents a few more days. Friday before Christmas Caleb was home and had two weeks off!!! Caleb and work negotiated his time off. He origianlly was suppose to have time off earlier, but we changed our trip to my grandmothers and he got 2 weeks off. It actully worked better for us changing his time off. We spend the 2 weeks with family around Christmas, but most of it relaxing at home as we all faught off different bugs. Thankfully we are healthy for now.
