Jake has decided that Fa la la la la is his favorite carol, but just that part. He even stretches out his arms at the end for the big finish.
Everyone asks how was Jake's first Christmas and my honest answer is" to him it was like every other day" He did open a couple of presents from us but his excitement came when he helped Ken and I open ours. And then even more excitement when we went to the fam's house and he could see everyone and play with all of his cousins. He loved it. He ran and laughed and played and showed off for hours. And of course helped himself to many a Christmas cookie. So after coming off of his sugar high he did well. He did well with sharing and being excited for others when they opened their presents. I think his biggest let down will be when we stop going to people's houses and all the grandparents go home. It makes my heart fill with delight to see how he interacts with people, especially our family, it is very big and overwhelming at times. So Merry Christmas to you all and I hope your holidays were filled with laughter!
