More Gifts

Uncle Eugene stopped by this afternoon. He's in town to celebrate the new year with his friends. He gave Mommy gifts from Auntie Kristin and him for Christmas. Mommy shipped ours, except for one...the R2D2 InstaPot!

I couldn't get enough of the box that had the cotton candy in it!

Christmas Celebrations

Mommy and I have been celebrating Christmas for a few weeks now (can't you tell from my previous posts?).

First there was the work celebration where Mommy's team got her a Fathead of me, a custom holiday card with me on it and a custom bobble head (still in transit).

Then there was the Framily celebration.

Clearly the headgear and light bulb necklaces were a hit.

Then there was the Family celebration. Mommy traveled to see Grandma and Grandpa.

Mommy had Grandma and Grandpa where light up necklaces (instead of headgear). I can't believe she got Grandpa to play along.

Of course Mommy missed me, but she and I had plenty of cuddle and car time before I went to play with my friends.

The Big Day is Here

Merry Christmas from our family to yours.

We made sure to keep our naughty or nice theme going all season.

But Mommy assures me I've been nothing but nice (and Santa thinks so too)!

1 Day

I think Santa would say...

...that I'd make a pretty good elf of the shelf.

Day 2

Nice try Mommy, but I know you are not Santa!

Day 3

What can I say? I wasn't the most cooperative with Mommy on this photo. Mostly because we were back to the headgear (which Mommy couldn't get on me).

She kept trying to get the perfect picture.

Almost, but not quite.

Success! And a small smile to boot.

Day 4

Instead of headgear, Mommy tried light up necklaces.

While I like these better than the headgear, I'm still not a fan.

If you look closely, you'll see my making a statement that Mommy wasn't so excited about.

Day 5

Merry and bright.

6 Days

Mommy's sweater conveys holiday spirit in the most obnoxious way. I have to give her credit for digging out the holiday headgear that matched.

7 Days

I know Santa can tell if I've been naughty or nice.  Mommy says I was naughty when I didn't cooperate with the Day 7 Christmas photo.

But I sure was nice when I gave Mommy kisses.

I was even nicer when I finally cooperated.

8 Days

Mommy says Santa can see me when I'm sleeping, knows when I'm awake and even knows when I've been bad or good.

Well know this Santa, I can see too and I know I've been a very good boy this year!

9 Days

Do you think Santa and his reindeer will let me join in their reindeer games?

I hope Mommy's "statement" will help my chances of playing with the reindeer.

10 Days

Only 10 Days until I find out if Santa thinks I've been naughty or nice.

11 Days

It's 11 days until Santa comes for a visit.

Marking My Territory

I spent part of the week with my friends because Mommy was traveling for work. She picked me up after she landed.

Once I got home, I ran into the bedroom and nestled into the carpet.

Mommy thinks I look like a cat when I do this (and she gets annoyed). But for me, it makes me feel like home.
