Aunt Beryl's Sweater

When Bridger was born, my Great Aunt Beryl sent him a beautiful hat and sweater that she knitted for him. He has worn the hat a lot but the sweater was too big until this year. Bridger wore it to church this morning and we wanted to take a picture of him looking very dapper in his sweater. Unfortunately Bridger has not been very cooperative with pictures as of late so we didn't get the angelic Christmas image we were hoping for. Above is the best we could do. He does like the sweater though, and he received a lot of compliments about how handsome he looked. Thanks Aunt Beryl!

Bridger is actually saying "Aunta Nooooodle" here as he got a bit mixed up about which Auntie was the gift giver.

Here is another outtake in which some sort of calamity was about to befall Thomas. This is a good look at his haircut. We should have gotten in cut long ago...it looks so much better.

Getting ready for "Chrissy"

I have been a busy "B" around here. Did you know that "Chrissy" is just around the corner. For "Chrissy" Santa might bring me skis so I can look for freshies and get the pow in Jackson Hole. (Daddy is going to Jackson Hole in February, and I think he should take me. Mommy isn't so sure about that.) I love my "Chrissy" tree and was a big help picking it out and putting it up. Here I am putting on an ornament. I only got in trouble a few times for trying to climb the tree like a monkey. Let me show you some pictures of what I have been doing to get ready for "Jesus Birday" at my house!

I showed Mommy that this is the perfect tree and I stood right next to it so no one else could take it.

Santa came to Baltimore on a tugboat and got to wave to him as he came to the docks!

This is me in front of the fire department boat. I love fire trucks and boats so this is the perfect thing!

After we saw Santa I got to go do a project in the square and make a snowman. Mommy helped a little.

In addition to getting ready for Christmas I went to get my haircut at a salon for the very first time. In Michigan LaLa used to cut my hair at Kiddie Kingdom, but since I can't go play there anymore I had to go to this place. The lady was very nice and let me touch the clippers before she used them. Mommy gave me animal crackers so I would sit still. I liked the animal crackers a lot and think she should bring them every time I get my hair cut. I look like such a big boy with my new haircut. I will make Mommy take a picture of my snazzy new 'do soon. Also I also had my first dentist appointment the same day. I have perfect teeth and I was very well behaved at the dentist office. I am sometimes not so well-behaved at home. :)
