Aaron enjoyed himself, but he was concerned by the footprints he was leaving behind him. He also seemed slightly more interested in all our neighbors' garbage cans at the curbs than the snow on the ground. He loves anything with a handle.

SNOW!
Completely unexpectedly, we got some snow this afternoon. Sick or not, we were headed out. This may be our only day of snow for the season!

Aaron's Second Christmas
This year we decided to stick with our apartment-sized artificial tree (I am allergic) and wait to buy a full-sized one until Aaron is more likely to leave it standing. So our tiny tree was way up high.
He is very careful about opening gifts an gives each scrap to me or Dad.
He loved his Zoobie Panda from Grandma and Grandpa Shumway.
He was not about to share it with Guinness.
He is signing "all done" to this present. I think it was all the tissue paper.
Aaron loved the box from Aunt Beth and Uncle Kevin.... and Daddy loved the train. :)
Blocks in a wagon. Perfect for our little guy!
But he was ready Christmas morning to get those gifts down.

A bit overwhelming I guess.

Dress Up
To my great pleasure, Aaron loves to play dress up----much like Ian Falconer's "Olivia".
Somedays he is an Oregon Duck. Uncle Kevin knows which one...
Other days he is Aunt Kristin.
Some days he tries on Daddy's shoes for size.
Sometimes he's in the mood for Mom's fancy scarf.
But he always loves to play "Rachael Ray".

Santa
This did not go well.
He signed "all done" and waved bye to Santa the whole time. The "whole time" was about 20 seconds. I didn't want to scar him. Aaron really did like the sleigh though. Poor little guy.

You'll Shoot Your Eye Out, Kid!
It is cold! Yes, Utahns... cold. It has been 24 degrees in the mornings when Aaron and I are on our way to work and school. The hooded sweatshirts we usually use as a coat for him aren't cutting it anymore.
We went out today and bought Aaron his first winter coat. He looks a little bit like Ralphie's younger brother in it as he can't really put his arms down by his side without trying pretty hard, but he is WARM.
