Christmas this year was definitely about family, food, fun and mellowness! Having been to Vancouver on the 21st and 22nd and then coming home to work the night of the 23rd and 24th I was definitely a tad bagged Christmas morning. But as usual, it proved to be a wonderful relaxing time.....we just had to do things a tad differently as I couldn't keep my eyes open past 9am!
Jason was wonderful in getting Alistair all invovled in his present opening. However, Alistair seemed much more interested in the gift bags and the wrapping paper than anything else!
Since I had to have a snoozaroo realtively early Jason cooked brunch for all while I had a nap.
Then when I woke we had another session of xmas present opening.
Then everyone was ready for a snoozaroo! :D
For numerous evenings including Christmas Day we sat down to hours of board games.
Over the month of December Alistair has decided to take another leap in his progression which is of course the best Christmas gift for this family. For one, he's become alot more cuddly but he is also increasing his eye contact substantially with us all which is really neat.
On top of that he's become very keen to be on his tummy and get up on his elbows and hands. Although it lasts momentarily and he comes down on his head into the rubber mat he seems to keep wanting to go for more. In addition, we do a lot of standing/dancing together on a daily basis. He obviously loves it as he giggles endlessly. (Thats another thing he's into is the giggles!)Now the most recent thing he's doing is attempting to feed himself a bottle. Although its messy and he'll only do it with one hand the fact he's doing it is fabulous to us!(the video below shows his fabulous mess!)
On top of the busy Christmas holiday season my cousin Jessica and her fiance Paul decided to tie the knot New Years Eve.
So we got to have an extra special New Years Eve with family and friends in Fort Saint John to bring in 2012. ~ Happy New Years Everyone. I hope it proves to be a great year for all! ~ Julie
