Christmas Night

Sorry about the scratches; he chased girls with a bucket on his head, mugged a cat, and got an enthusiastic kiss from a puppy.

Mommy has a knack for picking the best toys.

He's been enchanted by that truck for days now.

Little Santa

Merry Christmas

Beck opened the first present of the day with a little help.

I wish I recorded his squeals here.

Wedge got his Christmas treat.

Beck enticed Abe with his mouse.

Christmas Eve

Beck still doesn't understand presents, so Anjie had to give him a little help with his.

There's nothing better than a fresh box of crayons.

Chase

Chase's family is coming over any minute now.

We borrowed him to keep the boy and dog entertained while we mull the cider.

Snow storm

Snowy day

This is the first time Beck's walked in snow.

The backyard became a new and magical place.

Unfortunately, "new and magical" felt like 0 Kelvin, so I rushed them back inside.

Mommy's Nintendo

He's always good about putting the stylus back.

Lazy winter days

He's sad because he really does look like Charlie Brown.

Birthday cake

He helped himself upon the table while we put away our dishes.

"Woot, cake!"

I enjoyed his sugar-fueled table dance.

Scratching post

I didn't have the heart to tell him that toy was for the cat.

Hot Wheels

Beck discovered the joy of Hot Wheels around Thanksgiving time.

He's making "vroom-vroom" noises in this photo.
