Three Christmases and Three Birthdays
Ty takes his first trip to Chicago!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ty got to meet his Uncle Greggor in Chicago! |
|
|
|
|
|
When we arrived, it was -4 degrees. |
|
|
|
|
|
When it warmed up a bit, Jackson got to go play in the snow!! |
|
|
|
|
|
He LOVED throwing snowballs. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ty could only dream about the snowball fights he and Jackson will have someday. |
|
|
|
|
|
We celebrated Christmas Eve at Auntie Barb and Uncle Tom's. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ty meets his Grandpa for the first time! |
|
|
|
|
|
Uncle Greggor gives Jackson some putting tips. |

Christmas Morning #1...at Gramma's house |
|
|
|
|
|
Jackson got the present opening thing down quickly. "Rip it?" |
|
|
|
|
|
He had almost as much fun with the paper and packaging as he did with the presents themselves. |
|
|
|
|
|
Dad with the boys |

|
|
|
Gramma cuddles with Ty |
|
|
|
|
|
He didn't seem too excited about the whole Christmas thing. Wait until next year!
|
|
|
|
|
|
We also celebrated Auntie Lisie and Jackson's birthdays!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Jackson tried to blow out his candles, but spit all over the frosting... luckily it was his own cupcake! |
|
|
|
|
|
Christmas Morning #2...at Grandpa's |
|
|
|
|
|
Cool! A car! |
|
|
|
|
|
"Jackson drive? " |
|
|
|
|
|
We played some Rock Band at Grandpa's...
|
|
|
|
|
|
...Jackson got the rocker attitude down right away.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The only question is whether he'll be a drummer...
|
|
|
|
|
|
...or the lead singer. Only time will tell, but genetics suggest the former.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ty takes it all in. What a crazy family I've been born into!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Happy to be back at home...so sweet.

We celebrated Susan's 60th birthday on New Year's Day.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Jackson tried on Susan's glasses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
He was a little afraid of PopPop's new look!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Jackson enjoys our traditional Christmas breakfast... chocolate chip pancakes!
|
|
|
|
|
|
I wish I could have some of those!!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Jackson wasn't sure about the giraffe and the lion that Grandpa sent.
"They are scared!"
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once the Freddys (as Jackson named the giraffe and lion) were safely moved to the other side of the room, Jackson got into the presents.
|
|
|
|
|
|
We had one more surprise for him up in his room...
|
|

Tuckered out from a busy (but fun!) holiday season
