Almost Christmas

On Tuesday we went to Disneyland with Brian's mom and Bill to celebrate Jason and my birthdays! Here is Hunter just before going into the park. He looks happy, but has no idea that he's about to go to the happiest place on earth!

While in the park, Hunter decided he did not want to be in his stroller (what else is new?). Daddy and I took turns carrying him around the park. Here, Jeff, Jason and Brian walk together. Jason, is wearing his "Happy Birthday" hat!

Here is the whole group in front of Huck Finn island. Jeff, Jason, Bill, Susan, Brian, Hunter and me.

On the Jungle cruise, our first ride, Hunter was wide eyed and excited to see all that he could see. It was SO much fun to watch him take in the sights.

This is us entering the park...Hunter looks hungry ;-)

My two favorite boys!

Disneyland was all decorated for Christmas. It looked beautiful. You can see some of the lights behind me.

It's a Small World looked stunning, with it's special Christmas lights!

Jeff and Jason met the Mouse. I think that was the highlight of Jason's visit.

We met the mouse too. Hunter looked as thrilled as ever. He didn't fuss the entire day - he was in a great mood. I am always impressed by how laid back he can be. It seems like he just gets more and more easy-going.

Brian never fails to amaze me with what a good Daddy he is. Can't you just see the love in his eyes?

On Thursday we had the Bershon Holiday party. Jason and Hunter exchange the "I didn't do it" look. Then, Mommy and Hunter at the Bershon party.

Lil, Tessa and Vicki enjoy the holiday party across the table from us. Tessa is fully walking now!

Is it any wonder that I call Hunter "puppy"? Here he is - all Siberian Huskied out!

I don't know how these photos always seem to get out of order. Anyhow, this is after Disneyland, we had a wonderful dinner. Hunter wanted Jason's candle.

And here we are under the Disney Christmas tree.

We had a mini photo shoot on Saturday morning.

Mommy and Hunter were wearing the same outfit!

Look at our happy Pumpkin!!!

Hunter can crawl short distances and pull himself to a stand relatively easily. He is about to pull himself up on his "Hunter" stool. I can't believe how much he is able to do in this short period of time! Perhaps that is why he sleeps so much these days?

Hunter and his best buddy Keagan play at the bagel place, while parents eat. Well, not really, the dad's ate. The mom's held the babies.

Because we are going out of town on Christmas night, we celebrated Christmas with Brian's side of the family on Sunday night. Baby Santa, as opposed to Santa Baby, brought gifts and fun was had by all. Here is Hunter and Gramma Susie.

Hunter looking like the best kind of present!

Isn't baby Santa the CUTEST?!

Mommy and Santa

The best gift of the evening was from Uncle Jeff and Uncle Jason. It was a gigantic Curious George stuffed animal. He laughed and laughed when he saw it.

He also got a Super cool Radio Flyer sports coupe. I can't wait to put it together!

And Hunter can't wait either.
In the meantime, he'll just sit there looking adorable.

So, this was a wonderful week. I can't believe Hunter is going to have his first Christmas already! it seems like he was just born. He sits himself up from his tummy, kind of crawls, can pull himself to a stand and can walk so long as he is holding onto your hands. He amazes me. He is also extremely social, smiling and babbling at anyone who will pay attention to him. We think he's a little ham!

It's already Tuesday evening. On Thursday we head to Florida to see my family. It felt like we were never going to get there, but the time has come so quickly. Then we go on a New Year's cruise to the Caribbean. I am so excited to see the Caribbean through his eyes. Can you tell that I'm 110% in love with my little man? I'm that way about my big man too! How lucky am I?

Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukkah and Happy New Year. I wish the same kind of happiness for all of you that I am somehow lucky enough to have!
