Caleb's first Christmas

First family Christmas

Outside the snow is falling and it finally looks a lot like Christmas! It is a great day for sitting by the fire, drinking hot chocolate, playing with our new crocinole board and having lots of laughs while watching Caleb learn to walk on his new zebra push toy (see video below!).

Stocking fun

Caleb's first Christmas was a huge success. It began with a great dinner on the 24th where Grampie Greg, Alan and Caleb all debuted their festive matching Hawaiian shirts from Barbados! It was a very, very special moment for all in attendance! On Christmas morning, Cale helped unwrap all the gifts and has spent the past couple of days playing nonstop with his new toys. He particularly loved his vintage Family Camper, new books and his new toothbrush which was also a surprise winner! It was really fun to fill his stocking and play Santa on Christmas Eve, and I love knowing each year will only get better. It is fun to think about how the holiday season will bring him so much excitement and joy in the years to come.

Wow!

We braved the weather and took Cale outside on his new toboggan today. He looks just like he little brother Randy from The Christmas Story all bundled up in his blue snowsuit. He loved sliding and playing in the snow and now he's ready for a nice long nap. What a great storm day!
