Jakob Daniel and Everleigh Grace Hall

After an amazing trip to New York, we headed south to Connecticut to spend Christmas Eve and Christmas with my side of the family.  Santa managed to find Jakob in Newington as well and brought him lots of fun toys and presents to open.  We had two fabulous gatherings with family and even woke up to a white Christmas! Consider me the cruise control to CT On second thought, maybe I'll just snooze until we get there Grandma and Grandpa's neighbor Nicholas brought me a toy My shirt says it all "Silent Night....Mommy wishes" Thhhhhhhheeeeee Yankees win!! A Gettysburg hoodie...go Bullets! Wrapping paper is the best Great Uncle Brian and Aunt Kim got me a pony stuffed animal from Saratoga.  How appropriate! This box is bigger than I am! SHINY BOW This new toy has all sorts of enticing gadgets No time for pictures...I'm busy having fun Oh boy, look at me standing This is even better when I'm down to my diaper ...

Hamilton picked up at least a foot of snow while we were there, so we took Jakob out to get his first real taste of winter weather.  He didn't like the wind much, but he seemed hypnotized by the snow. I'm bundled up and ready to check out the snow Good thing Daddy is here to walk me around....I could get lost in all this snow Mommy may not like snow, but I think it's pretty I'm a snow beast! WHOA!  Look at it swirl around! Holden is having so much fun too Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes

I hope you're ready for LOTS of pictures from Christmas, because I had the camera out and took a lot of good ones.  We started our holiday extravaganza at the Hall's house in Hamilton, where we had lots of snow, food, presents, and cheer.  I'd rather sit here than in my car seat, but if you insist, I'll move to the back This is the first time Grandma and Grandpa Hall have seen me eat solids! Mmmm, I love cereal Sitting with Grandpa by the stove is so warm and cozy The Hall men Trying some mashed potatoes....GOOD! That ceiling fan is mesmerizing Keep it coming, Shirley Kisses for Nana (how do you like seeing it in writing, Molly?!)
