Happy Holidays everyone! We've had a busy holiday season. We got a Christmas tree and Riley and I helped decorate it. Somehow all the ornaments were rearranged to be just out of our reach.... We also put up Christmas lights and a big penguin in front of our house. I liked the penguin in the box, but am not so sure about it all blown up. 
Last weekend Grandma, Grandpa, GG, Unlce Jack and Uncle Seth came
over for Christmas. Mommy said I slept through most of Christmas last year. Not this year- I didn't even want to take a nap! I loved the paper and boxes and the toys too. Grandma and Grandpa got me a sled which daddy takes me for rides in around the house. Mommy said it might snow tonight and if it does, she'll take me for a real sled ride.

The next day was Christmas Eve. We didn't do too much. Mommy and daddy woke me up to go to church late at night and I thought it was fun to be wide awake! I ran all around church in my PJs. The next morning when I got up Santa had left me some presents. I was excited to see the big Elmo he brought me, but didn't want to go near it. For now I like to wave to him and dance to the Elmo song, but not get too close. I also got a zoo puzzle, a Buckeye hat and a new video. Mommy and daddy even bought a video player for the car, so when we packed up to go to Cleveland- I got to watch movies! 
In Cleveland I got to see all my cousins and open more gifts. Daddy taught me how to play the piano at Great Grandma and Grandpas. And my cousin Austin even spent the night with us at Grandma Bonk's and Papa Chicken's. Papa Chicken has two Christmas trees and has a train going around one of them. I liked to watch the train go round and round. 
The best thing about the holidays is that Daddy has been off since before Christmas and doesn't have to go back to work until after the New Year. Mommy was off for a few days, but had to go back to work for a few days. She said she is geting ready for our trip. I get to go on an airplane again! We are going to watch the Buckeyes play in New Orleans. I think mommy is a little nervous on how I'll do on the trip, but I'll try to be on my best behavior. We're going to go to an aquarium and do all kinds of fun things. Mommy has to work the game, but Daddy and I will cheer for her until she can meet us.
Have a safe and happy New Year!
