Christmas 2010

Christmas is becoming more and more fun as Graedy gets older!


Cool red guitar from Pops.


Lovin' his Special Agent Oso boat.


Driving his new motorcycles.


Watch out...I've got work to do!


The fam: Pops, Uncle Randy, Grandma Barbara, Graedy, Uncle Mitch, Grandma, Grandpa, Matt (Uncle Russ and I not pictured)

Big gift from Santa:It was another great holiday season filled with family, food, love, and laughter.

Birthday Party for Jesus!

After our trip to Disneyland I was wiped out. My mom and brother Mitch took Graedy to the church for the birthday party for Jesus. He had a great time!

Playtime

Balloons by the cakes and cupcakes

Exploring new toys

Playin' in the rain

The tail end of the same storm that hit Disneyland...only in Brawley! We were a little better prepared, and the fact that we were home made the rain a lot easier to deal with!

Christmas Trip to Disneyland

I decided not to renew my annual pass since we have a baby on the way and I probably won't be going as often for at least the next year. So sad. I will miss you Disneyland! We went about a week before Christmas and ended up being there just in time for a huge storm.
I loved the poinsettia with all the water looking like little crystals.

Crazy driver!

Visiting Santa

Reindeer at the petting zoo. However, you were not allowed to pet them!

Yea! A covered train ride after a long wet day.


We stopped at one of my favorite restaurants for one of my favorite meals. We had papas fritas as an appetizer (delicious, and Graedy loved them) and then a Monte Cristo sandwich, which I shared with Graedy. I liked it. That is the raspberry dipping sauce all over his face!

We planned to spend two days in the parks. The first day wasn't too bad...drizzly and overcast. But that evening the storm really moved in and by the next morning it was windy, cold, and really rainy. Had I not been in my first trimester of the pregnancy I may have toughed it out, but I wasn't feeling so great so we settled for breakfast in the hotel with the characters! Hanging out with Pluto after the surfing lesson.

Apparently Stitch puts him in stitches!

Even though it was rainy, I'm really glad we had a chance to go.

Kindermusik Performance

Graedy sang some songs and received his certificate. He was just as excited about the treat bag as he was about the certificate!
