Jim and Joyce brought Ethan a "Clifford the Big Red Dog" stuffed animal and hand made book which he adored. Christopher was nice enough to help him unwrap his first Xmas present.
We also went outdoors and played ball and went to visit Grandma and Grandpa. Jean and Russ came for Christmas this year...I can't remember the last time Jean and I got to spend a holiday together. We still felt the loss with our beloved Grandma missing but went ahead and tried to make it a very special holiday for the kids. Here is Uncle Russ playing with Ethan at Grandma's. Russ is a huge hit with both boys and we love having him come visit! The holidays passed in a blur with the house just brimming with activity and family. We had a beautiful tree that Ethan just adored and couldn't get enough of. And he would dance and play all the Christmas decorations and noticed when they got put up and when they would move. He was totally fascinated with it all.
And here are a few pics from Christmas Day.
And after all was said and done, Ethan got his "babas" and his "babies" and made Grandmother push him around for hours on his new tricycle in the house.
