Santa...I know him!

Mt first snow day!  Charlottesville had 3-5 inches last week.  I had to try out my dad's Tennessee snowsuit. 

Don't worry. I was only outside for a few minutes.  I'm not sleeping here; just blinded by the white glow!

I'm not sure what I think of this snow.

I now suck my thumb occasionally.  Pretty cute.

2 things to note here: Santa has a pet Cheetah on the left. Also, Santa has no idea how to hold a baby. 

I only gave a partial smile for Mom.

Hard to tell here, but I loved Santa's beard.  When I left, I had white beard fur in my mouth and hands.  Mom thought this was gross.

2 Months Old!

This pictures says it all.  I just want to look at the tree all the time.

Tummy time is not usually my favorite.  But I'm a generally laid back guy, so I put up with it.

My smiles are hard to capture.  I smile all the time except when the camera is around, so Mom was pleased with this one.

(This is a sneeze, not a cry)

I can't believe it's been over 2 months since Joel was born!  Time flies.  We are having a blast together.  He is such a fun baby and is always talking, cooing, smiling and kicking his legs.  Some of his favorite activities include looking at lights and ceiling fans, lying on his blanket and playing with toys, lying on the changing table, showering, and cuddling.

New developments include sucking his fist and/or thumb, sleeping 7-9 hours at night, and attending Christmas parties.  At his 2 month doctors appointment, Joel weighed 14 pounds, 14 ounces!  (That's in the 95th percentile)  Needless to say, he's a great eater.  We love you, buddy!

Christmas spirit

My Num Num (Grandma Melanie) smocked this outfit for me. I love it!

Sometimes I go shopping at Wal Mart with friends.

What can I say, I like the mistletoe already.

I also like to put my hand in my mouth.

I also like to stare at the Christmas tree lights.

It's pretty cool how I fit inside Dad's coat. (and yes, that's a penguin ice sculpture)
