Santa Claus!

Ho! Ho! Ho! We recently went to visit Santa (twice! - first time was not a success. I didn't get it, but now I do!). I sat on his lap and told him what I want for Christmas, and Mommy and Daddy said if I am a good boy that Santa will bring what I asked for on Christmas night! I had to give him Grandma's address, though, because we'll be in Des Moines. I don't really know what this whole Santa thing is about, and how it relates to Jesus' birthday (because Santa did not come on Berlin's birthday), but I think I will figure it all out. Berlin did not like Santa at all (can you tell?), so maybe that's why he didn't visit her on her birthday. I told Santa to give her a break, that she's a good baby, so he'll bring her a gift, too. Maybe next year she will stop being afraid of Santa. He's just a jolly man in red!

Merry Christmas!

Yum! Cake!

Aves loves cake, too!

Explaining to Mommy that it's his birthday.

I do not like birthday hats.

Happy Birthday Berlin!

Hi there! I had my first birthday party a few weeks ago! It was so much fun! We went to this pizza place called Nashville Pizza Co, and celebrated with friends. My future prom date, Dashton and his big brother, Camden were there, my buddy Noah, and my old daycare teacher, Ms. Janelle and her kiddos. Of course, their parents were there, too, this was a chaperoned party. My big brother, Aves, kept saying it was his birthday, but my name was on the cake! It was yummy! My first taste of chocolate was a big success. I want more! I had such a sugar high, I looked drunk. Drunk on sugar!! Mommy and Dada were so excited for me, but Mama got all emotional at home. She said I am growing up too fast. Can't help myself. There's so many fun things to do now that I am a toddler!

Well, I am sorry if I missed you at my party, but I'll see ya at Christmas!
Big hugs and kisses,
Berlin
