Can't wait to meet Santa!

Kyle was the most excited baby waiting in line to meet Santa.

Kyle instantly fell in love with Santa Clause. At first when we put him in Santa's lap, Kyle could not stop staring at Santa. Then he turned to look at us with the biggest smile on his face. Everyone in line could not get over how smiley and happy Kyle was.

Christmas Party

We went to the Holiday Party for Mommy and Kyle's weekly playgroup. It was a lot of fun. There was a toy gift exchange and Kyle scored. He ended up with a toy that has a little plastic hammer that you are supposed to bang all the shapes with. He loves pounding on things. It is always a lot of fun to include the dads. I think at one point all the dads were sitting on the ground playing with the kids and the moms were all socializing in the kitchen.

The long journey home.

Thank goodness for Jet Blue TVs. Kyle was able to catch the game!

Auto Ferry to Vermont

As you can tell we are freezing. We only got out of the car to take this picture. None of us had ever been on an auto ferry before. Kyle would have thought it was so cool if he was older.

Lake Placid

Warming up at Starbucks! Kyle ordered a Grande no foam Formula, Hot! The way he likes it.

Exploring Joann and Chad's 160 acres

Kyle's first snow.

Joann's Driveway-Kyle could not stop staring at at all the snow.

Eliza and Kyle

Kyle (7 months) loved being around his cousin, Eliza (11 months). She demonstrated how to crawl and stand but Kyle is still working on it. Eliza loved climbing on him and sharing all her toys. Kyle would get upset when she would crawl out of the room.

Playing in the hotel

I know I am cute.

Kyle's first time out of the country

Going up

Headed to the Skylon Tower's rotating restaurant in Niagara Falls.

Kyle's first time eating out.

Kyle was a great traveler. He loved eating his oatmeal, fruit, and veggies in restaurants and hotels.

Niagara Falls hear I come.

Kyle is bundled and ready to head across the border into Canada.

Mommy's first trip without Kyle!

Chicago is a beautiful city. Although I missed Kyle like crazy, I could not pass up the opportunity to see Oprah in person. We had a lot of fun. Chicago is a great city.
