First bath with a plastic baggie on a limb.

I'll admit it, while on the phone with Grandma I wasn't paying close enough attention to what Weston was doing and he got too close to the pellet stove. Bad Mommy. Now, with that said, it isn't that bad. We just have to keep his fingers wrapped up for a few days. And this probably won't be the last time that we will be relying on Ziplocs and rubberbands at bath time.

My little genius.

The best part of Christmas....

Family.

Christmas...again and again and again.

Weston got to celebrate Christmas and open presents multiple times. First, at home before we left for California, next with mom's family on Christmas Eve (minus Grandma & Grandpa) and on Christmas day with breakfast with the Weststeyn's and crab cioppino with the Menseses'. We came home with way too many toys, but he had lots of fun.

Trying to get into the presents before it was time to open them....
Loving his new backpack from Uncle Josh and Aunt Liv and his new ATV from Aunt Tami... Yet another riding toy (good thing he loves them) from Great Grandma & Great Grandpa W.More intersted in the box of course...and he loved playing with the parts, but after Danny got the spring/bouncy horse put together he has since wanted nothing to do with it (really big and high off the ground). As he grows I know it will become more popular.

Rolo's and Santa Sliding

Weston likes chocolate, need I say more?

And we made a trip to visit Santa. There was no crying involved, and Wes even showed some curiosity about the (too skinny to be the real thing) man in the red suit. However, after placing Weston up on his lap he immediately made his best effort to wiggle and slide away from the jolly old feller. But all is good because I got to eat his free candy cane.

Party, Party, Party!

We had a great birthday party for Weston last Saturday...he wasn't sure about having so many people in his house, but slowly he warmed up to the idea and was running right along with all the other kids.

He was spoiled with tons of gifts but the best part was having family come from far away. Grandma got to stay for a few days, cousin and godmother Alexx stayed with us for the weekend and Tia Julie and John made a quick road trip to come to the party.

One year old.

Wow, can't believe Weston's 1st birthday is tomorrow...seems like yesterday that he was just born. Enough said.
