We had a nice Christmas with just our little family. We slept in a little late and opened presents in the afternoon. John had no idea what was going on but was interested in all the paper! Bill and I know next year will be a completely different story.....
Our little man can now sit unassisted for extended periods! It is so cute to see him sitting and playing with toys, picking them up and putting them right in his mouth! He rolls onto his side to sleep most nights, and actually one night this past week rolled onto his stomach to sleep with his head on the not-flathead side (which is not that bad anymore, but still a little noticeable to the discerning parental eye!).
Friday John's Grammy and Poppy came for the afternoon but for some reason no pictures were taken, not sure why. Saturday JohnJohn's aunt Linda and cousins Lauren and Emmy came for an overnight stay. I'll post pictures from that visit later. Needless to say, JohnJohn loved all the attention!
Don't forget to vote in my poll!
Today's pictures: JohnJohn's first Christmas- JohnJohn opening a present; John in his hat from his cousin Danielle, who put his initials on the hat; John with his Daddy opening a present; JohnJohn opening a present from his Granddad, drums which he really likes to bang on; Our happy family- it took us 20 minutes and these are the best of the bunch- the flash wouldn't go off or John would look at his Daddy at the last minute. Bill was getting so frustrated and I was laughing hysterically- you can tell how we're feeling by our faces in the last picture!
Today's video: JohnJohn banging on the drums on the Wii- our little rock star in the making!

Love your Christmas pictures! Your tree is beautiful and your family is even more beautiful than the tree. The JL hat is great. Danielle did a good job. We are still upset that we forgot our camera- Poppy went to all the trouble to charge it up the night before and then we forgot it! We were too busy playing with John to take pictures anyway! Love ya, Grammy
we call michael our little drummer boy too. He got a real set this year. Maybe he and john john will be in an awsome rock band with two drummers and call eachother "cuz"
Loved all the pictures from christmas morn. Danielle was thrilled to see him wearing the hat she got for him.
Talk about looking like your Dad- in the last pic Bill looks like Hal after we took their pictures for our Christmas cards years ago. What goes around ...
