Merry Chirstmas!

Will had a great Christmas and got to see lots of relatives.

We hosted Leah's Parents, Sister Marianne and her friend Felix on Christmas Eve. We all made a Gingerbread House and broke open Christmas Crackers with paper hats and treats inside.

Then we made it out of the house and celebrated Christmas Day at Aunt Kelly's. We visited with Aunt Kelly, Cousin Jack and Jamie, Grandma Nobles, Uncle Michael, and Aunt Jane.Will really liked the snowman family on Grandma's sweater

Will was again in awe of Cousin Jack and Jamie. They even gave him their old doll stroller! Aunt Jane got us this cool sweater with a big moose on it! I think there will be picture on his rocking moose with the sweater on soon!

Thanks to everyone for the great gifts and memories!

Early Christmas gift

We have been cooped up in the house for much of the week due to the severe weather on the hill here. Will was getting very bored so we decided to let him have our Christmas gift for him early. We got him a drum set and he loves it! Mostly he loves the drum sticks... but he is starting to use them on the drums as well. Here is video of his first drum solo!

And now with a bigger audience!

Snow!

We are snowed in here at home, but we ventured outside to get some groceries at the neighborhood market. Here are some pictures of Will out in the snow. He saw snow for the first time when he was just a month old but probably does not remember it. It was like a whole new experience for him. He even tried to walk by himself in it with some success!

Walking a lot!

The walking has taken off in the last week. Will has gained so much confidence. He chases us around the house and vice versa. Here are videos of him walking around doing silly things...

The ideal volume for a DJ Tronic mix CD is not 11 but 32!

<-- We also have a new poll posted: "Will's first word will be..." Pick from the list of contenders, or post a guess here.

Birthday pictures!

It was a Rubber Duckie themed party.
Mom made duck gift bags for all the kiddies:

Dad was the only one to wear a rubber duckie hat, though: Of course the cake was duck shaped so Will would recognize it:He wasted no time diving in for a taste...and another taste:Then the gifts: All the kids were interested in helping Will with the unwrapping. Dad was overpowered.
