We went outside to play in the snow today. When I first got Harrison dressed he wasn't too happy, but once we got outside he had fun being pulled around the yard on his little sled.
We had a great Christmas. We still don't get a huge reaction out of Harrison when he opens presents, but he has loved playing with all his new toys, and we have watched Kung Fu Panda at least 5 times!
We hope that everyone had a Merry Christmas!
I love this picture of him! He loves decorating Christmas trees!
You'll notice how well he spreads the ornaments around! I remember being little and really thinking that I was dispersing ornaments evenly; it probably looked like this.
We went to see the lights on temple square and it was FREEZING, but worth it. Harrison kept taking his mittens off and his hands were like little icicles. He liked looking at the lights and kept saying, "Whoa mommy! " I love going down to see the lights.
This is Harrison's new room all done and painted. There's nothing hung on the walls yet but we will get there. Harrison has been so excited for his new room and big boy bed. He keeps talking about it and saying he wants to sleep in it so tomorrow night we will try it. He had his first sleepover at grandma's the other night and did well. He fell asleep on her couch and then stayed on the little floor bed that she made him. I am hoping he does as well here! We'll keep you posted!
...chicken nuggets means pizza? I asked Harrison at least three times today if he wanted chicken nuggets or pizza for lunch, and all three times he enthusiastically said chicken nuggets. I was going to have pizza due to the fact that I am not a huge fan of the dino nugget, and since I have been pregnant Little Ceasar's pizza has been climbing up the list of favorite pizza places (Pizza Man in North Ogden being my favorite...forever). Anyway I started his nuggets and then got out the pizza, and suddenly he was begging for pizza. Did you also know that you HAVE to eat pizza on two plates, mommy's original plate, and a plate for your "salsa" (which to Harrison apparently means ranch). By the time the nuggets were done he'd eaten two pieces of pizza and a jello. Macy pooch enjoyed a nice lunch of dino nuggets and fries. In the end everyone was happy!
Don't you just want to kiss that messy face? Oh Harrison, we love you so much!
Harrison also now enjoys wearing "unerwears"...on top of his pants! He asks everyday. Some days I give in because it is just so funny!
Last night we put up our Christmas tree and from the moment I got it out Harrison was begging to put on the lights! How does he know that? Anyway, his newest favorite thing is to plug and unplug the tree lights!
messy and sticky and stinky, but still always cute. The only thing he really wants me to do is, "ew, ew clean it up mommy!" So, I guess that's what I will do. This too shall pass right?
The sad thing is that 3 days later, it looked like we hadn't done anything. I went out and mowed up an entire city garbage can and bagged 9 more bags. There are still a few more that need to drop but I think the worst is over.
This baby elephant was so cute! Harrison loved watching it.
The cute tigers. There were 3 babies.
My mom was nice to come with us and Harrison loved having her there.
Our little cowardly lion. He looked so cute.
It took a few houses before he was able to brave all the scary pumpkins and walk to a door without crying. He warmed up to it once he figured out everyone was going to give him candy. He even said trick-or-treat a few times. It was so cute!
I can't believe how much he has grown up. It's like all the sudden you wake up and your baby is a big boy. It's sad, but it is so fun to watch him learn new things and develop their little personalities. I love him so much. It was a great Halloween.
