Christmas with the Rest of the Family

After celebrating Christmas at home it was time to begin the many other Christmases we would celebrate. We left for Bompa and Grandma's for lunch and gifts. Johnathan was still kind of cranky and didn't eat much. When we headed downstairs to open presents he was in a little better spirits. He made his rounds seeing everyone. He enjoyed sitting with Floyd a little bit.

He found Tyler and Debby's gifts much more interesting. Several times during the gift opening Johnathan crawled over to help them open their presents.

We were able to get him to open his presents. In his stocking he got paper and pen which he was impressed with. (We don't allow him to have those at home due to his body doodling and paper trails he tends to leave)

He also received a Osh Kosh zip-up jacket and a musical car that moves and plays Livin' La Vida Loca'. Thank goodness for the mute button!

After opening his gifts he spent some time 'talking' with Dagen and chilling while drinking his bottle.



Of course his favorite part was helping Grandma Carol open her gifts.
The following night we had Christmas at Mom and & Dad's house. Johnathan was very busy checking everyones gifts out and traveling from person to person. I was able to snap a picture of him with his Papa Paulie and playing with some of his favorite toys at Grandma's.


When we returned home we immediately had to get out one of Johnathan's new presents: His Fridge Farm. He loves it and plays with it constantly. Will try to upload the video of him at a later date.

That Sunday we got in the car and drove to Pa John's house. Johnathan was really getting into this gift opening thing and was quite excited when he saw this gift.

He started opening it but stopped to pose for another picture:

He was quite excited about his new car to ride. He has really gotten the hang of it yet but I'm sure before long he'll be scooting all over the house.

After his gifts were unwrapped he showed Pa John and Mary the picture collages they received as gifts. He enjoyed showing Pa that the pictures were of him.


Johnathan was not forgotten by the New York families either Grandma Gail and Aunt Carol's family presented Johnathan with his gifts during our Thanksgiving trip.

Uncle Tom & Aunt Peg sent Johnathan some books that have become a must pack when we leave the house.


As you can see Johnathan was quite spoiled this Christmas and can usually be found surrounded by all his great new gifts.
