Merry Christmas

William had a very busy Christmas weekend!

First we picked up Emily from school and then went to Grandma Laurie's house and partied with auntie Laura, Carl, Hope, Shelly, & Matt. (Pictures are fuzzy/hazzy due to an issue with the camera set up - this is fixed later).


William has difficulty with opening presents still. When we are able to get him to open them himself, you might notice a funny face. It seems he doesn't like the feeling of the paper. Here is Emily helping Will with the gift she got him and then he has it below. He has so much fun with his big sister!


Cousin Hope loves to help William too.

Bath time is about to get a lot more fun!!


Will loves his cool new shoes from Great-Grandma Joanie, Pa Joe, & Cheech!! They are always so good to him!!





The kids lounging Saturday morning after a heavy night of partying. Just resting up for the next two parties to come...



Saturday night was a big party with Papa G's family. We had to leave early, since Will's double ear infection was flaring up again and we needed to get him some antibiotics.

Sunday was our party with Papa G, Grandma Karen, Great-Grandma Betty, auntie Ashley, and Scott. William has a blast with Scott who is quick to take him and entertain him! As usual, the kids were spoiled with all the gifts!!

Will's new remote from Grandma Karen. He totes this thing everywhere.


Showing off his remote to Papa G.



Auntie helps Will open a gift from Ann, Rick, Cate, & Zach (who also decorated our 'stocking' bags for us!!)


Will loves it. Here is again at home with it. He likes to press the buttons and dance to the music!


Here are just two of the many gifts Emily got this weekend, and it's not even the big day yet!! (the majority of the pictures of the kids opening gifts were too hazy/fuzzy to post)





Mommy & Will


Daddy got Will's new car put together once we got home. He spent the evening getting in and out of the car repeatedly.






Will got a really cool toy from auntie Laura, Carl, & Hope. He had fun learning how to turn it on and then got really excited by the 'crowds' response!! Take a look...







William opens a cool new car from auntie Ashley & big buddy Scott. He loves it so much, he head-bangs it!!






Here is William test driving his new car. He spent all evening getting in and out of the car!
