Merry Christmas 2015!

We headed out on a road trip to Granny's for Christmas this year.  I was really nervous about the car because he had not been much of a fan lately but he ended up doing really well!  He slept some and played a little bit and then at the very end of the trip when he was kind of over it we played a little Elmo on the iPad and he was fine the rest of the way.  He did great on the way home too!

A few weeks before we left we went to see Santa.  He was fine the whole time but as soon as we put him on Santa's lap he lost it.  I was secretly glad because I think the crying Santa pictures are so cute.  Sorry Brooks!

In the car (he rode the whole way in his jammies)

Playing dirty santa on Christmas eve.

He had fun opening presents!  He loves his fly bike

and his Noah's ark with all the animals.

He even got a "my phone".

My sister got brooks and chase matching jams…so cute!

and we had a little birthday party for him on Christmas night.  I made him a little "healthy" cake and some cupcakes.  We sang happy birthday and at first he was a little freaked out I think but then he ate it!

I used this recipe Healthy Baby's First Cake and I followed it pretty much exactly but I did put a little sugar in the frosting because it tasted pretty bad without it!

It was a great first christmas/birthday extravaganza!
