Christmas with the Taylors

Atticus with Grandaddy.

We tried numerous times to get a good picture of the cousins together. Each photo session usually ended up with lots of pictures of only Atticus looking at the camera.

Max and Atticus with the Grans.

"Did I bring Pablo? Are you kidding me! Of course, he's right behind me."

Another photo session. Phil is to the left handing out candy...which is all Max IV seems to care about. Max III is laying on the ground (in case Atticus falls forward)...which is all Pierson and Atticus seem to care about.

Old School "Toy Story" on the Play Station was a big hit for Max and Pierson.

Here, Max is distracting Pierson so he can...

take the vacuum cleaner attachment from him.

Max and Atticus with Papa and JuJu.

We had a great time!

Christmas

Because we were flying South on Christmas day, and staying at a hotel near the airport on Christmas Eve, we opened presents a little early.
This would be a picture of Max's forced smile because I promised him this would be the last picture if he would smile.

"What is my favorite gift?"

"Pablo!"
(from the Backyardigans cartoon. He also got Tyrone; although he is still holding out for Uniqua--pronounced "you-KNEE-qwuh"

This present was a big hit for Atticus. He sat in front of that thing for days. It is the perfect height for him to look in the mirror and smile at the baby looking back at him. He also gives him lots of high-fives.

After opening presents, we headed over to the park for some sledding.

It was really really cold, but we didn't have a far walk. In fact, you can see the back of our house...the yellow one on the far right side of the picture.

While Max went sledding,

Atticus slept.

Max REALLY wanted to go down the snow-covered slide. Big surprise...

it led to this.

Linus?

Some people carry around a blanket. Max chose a tree.

All dressed up and no where to go?

nope. Sunday School. It's hard to believe that Max is old enough to go to his own Sunday School class. As sad as it is that he is growing up so fast, it is so exciting to get to see him learning Bible stories already. He has finally caught on to praying with his eyes closed and saying "amen" at the end, but he doesn't always wait until the end. The other day in church, our pastor started to pray and after about 5 words, Max shouted, "amen!"

Does your tree look empty?

Ever feel like you need a few more ornaments? Well, Max has the answer for you...rubber bands. Just get a handful of rubber bands and carefully place each one on the end of a branch.
