Waiting on ho ho ho.

Chewing on ice cubes in this mesh bag sucky thing because my teeth are driving me nuts....

Getting hugs from mama helps too.

Uncle Chris and Staci came out this weekend to go to the Texans' game - and they won, so everyone was in a swell mood. I was just chillin with CT, while he fed me "phishies" from the pile on his belly.

Slip slidin' away

Grandma and Grandpa sent me a new slide for Christmas. Staci helped mama put it together this weekend so I could play outside in the 80 degree Texas weather. (Christmas next year in Minnesota is going to be a lot different!)

Look mama, one hand!
Thanks Grandma and Grandpa! Love you!

Time to decorate the Christmas tree.
Hmmmm.... Santa goes here...
And just like that...(isn't this a cool picture?)

And the tree is ready for me to pull everything off. Hooray!

Check this out - we have a ho ho ho in our front yard. Every night I beg by the front door "side", "side" so that mama will take me out side to give ho ho ho a high five. I hear this is the guy I've got to butter up so I get lots of presents! (not that I haven't had my share already!) Mama had to post this pic so you can see the t-shirt dada bought me in Vegas. Furrari - HAH! Can you see the dog? I think it's smashing with the ho ho ho hat.
Speaking of docs, Mac is hiding from me. Guesss who's chasing who these days?

Couples weekend in Vegas, babyThe weekend after Thanksgiving, Grandma and Grandpa headed up to Minnesota to take care of Jamie and Katie, Ga and Pawpaw stayed in and headed to Katy to take care of me,

and Uncle Billy, Aunt Kristen, dada and mama met in Vegas for some adult time.

The lights were amazing...
The architecture incredible...
and the fireworks rocked!While dada and Uncle Billy sped around the race-track, the ladies shopped 'til they dropped. Check out those christmas tree balls - Vegas is no joke!And then they shopped some more. Funny, I only wound up with a t-shirt.
On Sunday night, my folks got cleaned up and went to dinner at Bellagio's FIX and saw Cirque du Soleil's "O".
Everyone was looking sassy! The eats at FIX were great all around - from "Very Adult Macaroni and Cheese" (gruyere cheesey deep fried sticks), to steaks, to poke sashimi, to wedge salads. Dada had kobe beef mini hamburgers. How happy does he look?
