Our plane left at 7 am so we had to be at the airport at 5. Harrison was such a good sport and was surprisingly happy to be woken up at 5 am.
This was his first airplane ride and I was so nervous because I didn't know how he was going to react. He did amazing, thanks to lots of new toys and our portable DVD player. I am so proud of him. I love this picture of him with the little ear phones in.
We went to Sea World our first day there and let me tell you this kid LOVES Sea World. He gets so excited to see all the animals. Mickey Mouse, he could take him or leave him, but polar bears and penguins he could sit and watch all day. He was so excited to see the polar bear he kept saying, "Mommy lets go in there and wake up that polar bear!"
If you go to Sea World you have to feed the dolphins. It was totally worth it to watch Harrison feed them. I thought it he'd be a little nervous, but he just kept picking up fish and chucking them in the dolphins mouth. It was funny when we ran out of fish he kept saying, "mommy daddy need more fish, need more fish!" He loved it and is still talking about how he "fed a fish to a dolphin".
Luckily Shamu hadn't decided to go crazy yet, so we got to see the show, which is pretty cool and Harrison loves it.
They had this lovely rope net that Harrison decided he just had to climb. Nick also decided that since I am the smaller of the two of us that I should be the one to climb to the top with our two year old and then crawl through the maze of tunnels at the top to get down. Not the most fun thing to do while you are pregnant.
I don't know if you can tell in this picture but there is a huge walrus behind Harrison. Harrison was so excited he kept swimming right up to the window.
Harrison is the kind of kid that will not let himself fall asleep if he feels like he is going to miss something. By the end of the day he was so tired. 
Along with growing he has developed some new vocabulary as well. He's started saying, "I sure do" when you ask if he wants something. "Mommy that's amazing" is popular, and one of my favorites "mommy hang on a second". He has also learned some not so nice things like "mommy that's disgusting" when I ask him for a kiss, and "stupid". Stupid books, stupid Piston Honda, stupid daddy (not stupid mommy...yet). He was bound to learn it sometime, I just didn't think it would be so soon. They grow up too fast, but I am loving watching him learn new things.
Our other little one is growing and everything seems to be going well. I haven't been too sick, just tired, and gaining more weight than I care to admit. Harrison seems to get what is going on. If you ask him who is in our family he'll say, "Daddy, mommy, Harrison, Macy pooch, and baby sister." He likes to kiss my belly and says he's going to be her buddy. I hope he likes her that much when she gets here. She still doesn't have a name yet, but Harrison seems to think it's going to be Addy Emma. We will see.
Can you believe he didn't even eat one bite of his birthday cake? I think there was too much going on.
We went to Chuck E Cheese for his birthday, and he had so much fun. He kept saying, "Mommy this is awesome!" (Awesome....he learned that from Kung Fu Panda). Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to take any pics at Chuck E Cheese. It's too hard to chase kids and play and eat and take pictures. My sister got a few so I will post those when she sends them to me.
He had so much fun with his cousins and had a great birthday!
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!
