Chasing Conner: My big trip

Oh, this is going to be a long post!!

Mommy and Daddy brought me to PA to see Santa and to have my first birthday. It was a LONG trip, and I missed my cribby a lot, but I had fun. Here are the pictures Mommy and Daddy took!
This is in the big building with lots of big people beds on our first night. Daddy brought my playpen, and I slept in there. Good thing, too, because there weren't any cribbies in our room!

Here I am waiting for Daddy to get my playpen ready.

All sacked out.

I finally made it to Grammy and Pap's house! They were really glad to see me, and I was glad to see them, too! Grammy's friend Betty had left this toy for me. It helps me walk, and I play with it every day! Pap is telling me how to use it.

Good thing Pap explained it to me!

The next day, we had a Christmas party. I enjoyed myself, and ate till they thought I would explode. They don't know about how I hide food in my cheeks like a chipmunk, I guess. This is me with my Aunt Helen, who I went to right away. She's a nice lady!

I liked it when she rocked me.

Grammy had this rocking horsie. I'm too little for it, but I liked pushing it and pulling its hair.

I also learned how to go up stairs!

Here I go!

Mommy waited to help me, but I'm a big boy- I didn't need her!

Daddy was waiting at the top, too.

Here I am with my Pap. I really liked playing with him.

Here I am playing with the horsie again!

Pap's shoe was fun when it went back and forth. He let me play with it!

Caught it!

Caught it again!

On the day before Santa came, I got presents! The paper was GREAT! The stuff inside was pretty cool, too...

Why did they keep taking my paper away?????

This is my bathtub toy. It's a boat that I can swing all around by a rope!

Daddy is helping get my toy out of the box.

This is Aunt Beth again. She sees a guy with a LITTLE drool once in a while, and she never forgets! She and Uncle Andrew got me a piggy bank. I push its nose, it sings, and I dance!

See, Aunt Beth, I'm not ALL bad!

I could get THESE cabinets open! Their kitchen was great!

Here I am in my other Christmas outfit, just like a big boy!

A few days later, we went (and notice my NEW carseat!) to see Mommy and Daddy's friends Pat and Gabie, so I could meet a new little girl. The ride put me right to sleep. Can you tell I'm holding my piggy toes?

This is Elle. I liked her right away. She wasn't so sure.

Here we are- Mommy and me, Gabie and Elle!

Most girls like me- I don't get it!

She's little, though...

Guess I'll just go play with her toys, which I did for the rest of the afternoon.

MY BIRTHDAY CAKES

I was lucky enough to have 2 birthday cakes!!! These pictures were taken with Daddy's family. Grammy took the pictures at her house, and I'll post them once she sends them to Mommy.
