Christmas 2008

Coming downstairs with Mommy on Christmas morning.

Best gift ever!  A new shovel!  THANK YOU, SANTA!!

WOW!  New froggy towels!!

I'm really starting to get the hang of this present opening business.

Wow - this is a BIG one!

Grammy & Grumpy Barriault got me a cool new sled.

Celebrating Christmas with my second cousins, Sarah, Johanna and Emilie.  I really loved Sarah's doggy, Griffin, but not so much those bunny rabbits of hers.  

I dunno....  (Johanna taught me this new trick.)

JUMP!

Grampa Gouldson got me a really neat toy plane when he was in Bend, OR.

And Gramma Gouldson got me a cool space ship.  

New Play Space

These new built-ins are the best place space ever!  Thanks Mom & Dad!

Enjoying my paper and a beer (?!?!?).

'Tis the Season

Uncle Michael & Auntie Meg's Wedding

The ring bearer rehearsing his walk.

Hotels are cool!  Can we move here??

Getting all dressed up in my suit for the big event!

I can climb this thing...no sweat!

Chillin' on the alter after the ceremony.  Whew - that was hard work.

The wedding party - including the beautiful bride, and the handsome groom.

Aiden thought HE was the center of attention that day.  Not today, kiddo.

Is this anyway to behave in church???

Who are those handsome young men??

Cousin Johanna, Mommy, Aiden and Cousin Sarah on the dance floor.

Snowfall

Aiden was captivated by the first snowfall of the year.

Turkey Day 2008

Sipping "mocktails" with Mom.

Hammin' it up for the family.

Grammy has cool toys at her house.

Hangin' out with Dad and cousin Johanna while playing with Auntie Nay's hair.  I LOVE playing with hair!

Chillin' on the weekend...

Aiden working on his blog.  What's taken you so long to get this thing updated, kid??

Mommy stealing kisses.

Like Father, Like Son

Two favorite hobbies.....

.....cooking......

....and poker.  (Daddy says Aiden is way too excited about Ace-Jack unsuited...)

Game Day

Daddy & I love to get dressed up for the Pat's games.

Look at me!

Okay....I'm starting to like these winter clothes afterall.  Maybe Dad will let me snowboard with him a Sugarloaf.  I think I've already got the hang of it...

I hate winter!

Aiden wasn't diggin' his new cold weather gear....

Halloween 2008

Lovin' my monster costume.

Katie & I at NGCC costume day.

Katie, me and Fiona with our teacher, Brittney.

Me (the blue monster) and Fiona the monkey all decked out for Halloween.

Mmmmm......Kit Kats!

Mommy's Lil' Monster

Gettin' ready for trick-or-treators.  (We had TWO.)

Auntie Renee was really scared of me in my costume!

Angel Fish

Riding the Angel Fish at my friend, Adam's, first birthday party.

Errands are exhausting!
