Merry Christmas!

We had a wonderful Christmas and it was so nice to be able to celebrate with our family!

 We had Christmas Eve dinner at Great-Grandma Glo's house and Emmie and I were hamming it up as usual :-)

 Thank you Grandma Glo - I love you!

 We may not look alike, but you can tell we are cousins!

 My first piano lesson...

 WOW!

 The mantle is at capacity!

 Christmas morn started with stockings at Grandma Chris and Grandpa Bob's house...

 

 

 ...then we went over to Grandma MJ's for brunch and more present opening...

...and then back to Grandma Chris and Grandpa Bob's for dinner and to finish up the gifts.  It was a fantastic day!

 Whoa, this remote control car is awesome!

 Shop-vac attachments - just what I always wanted!

 "The King" hauler truck - this really IS just what I always wanted!  Thanks Great-Grandma Neva!

 

 Now this is more like it - give me any kind of ball to play with and I am happy!

 Thanks Mom!

 

 

 

Koen's 15-mo Stats

Length: 32 in (75%)

Weight: 21 lbs 12 oz (10-25%)

Head: 19 in (75%)

The news from my latest doc appt kind of got lost in the Christmas excitement, but here's a quick recap.  Right now my favorite toys are balls and anything that plays music.  I love dropping/rolling the balls and then chasing them down.  I am still very easy going and sweet-natured and love interacting with people.  I'm not walking yet, but very close!

Christmas Gifts from Grandpa Mike & Grandma Lisa

Thank you so much for the wonderful gifts - we all love them!!

Busy Weekend

We went to lower MI last weekend for Auntie Sarah's college graduation, Auntie Nina's baby shower, a belated birthday celebration for Emmie and an early Christmas celebration.  It was quite the weekend!

Grandpa Mike surprised us all by showing up - we thought he was still in China!!

It was so much fun spending time with Grandpa Mike and Grandma Lisa and we were so happy they were able to come back from China for a visit.  We love you!

Noah's Preschool Holiday Program

We had a holiday program at school on Wednesday and Mom, Dad, and Koen got to come and watch me sing with my class and then we had treats afterwards with everybody.  It was a fun day!

Koen was thrilled with the show...or maybe just with his Cheerios.

All decked out!

Winter Wonderfest

It's officially an annual Mayra Family tradition now - we had SO MUCH FUN!!

 We all rode on the Reindeer Express together this year - my ride of choice from last year.

 

 This was a favorite new addition this year :-)

 

 

 Mommy even went on one of the adult rides - I think she had just as much fun as me and Koen!

 Now that's what I call a Christmas cookie!
