A magical Christmas Day...

This morning started around 7:30 for the Neill Family and even though we have been home all day we were certainly busy. I could not believe my eyes when I stepped into the family room, Santa Claus was so good to me! I was thinking I had been a good boy but there was no question with all my goodies under the tree. Luey & KoKo got goodies too, I am hoping they were all meant for eating/chewing because that is all they have done all day.
We are heading to TN tomorrow morning, I am so excited!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone.

Christmas Eve in NYC

Yesterday was super cool! Mommy, Daddy and me spent the day in Manhattan and went to see the Christmas Spectacular featuring the Rockettes. I sat through the entire show and was quiet as a mouse. Mommy and Daddy seemed surprised; when do I ever not cooperate?!?! :)

I love the snow!!!

So, we are running a bit behind but here are some pics from the snow we had in CT this past weekend. I was so not prepared(clothing wise) a couple weeks ago when we had a small snowfall but that is not the case now. Check me out, new boots, bib overalls, gloves and a really great jacket. I even rolled around in the snow and stayed dry. I must admit, after a bit it was cold but Mommy took me in and put me into the warm bath straight away. What fun we had, check out Daddy running around!

Christmas lights are great...

This weekend we had a great time driving around and checking out all the beautiful Christmas lights. A few places we went were over the top. Unfortunately the only pics of me are in the car because between all the snow and the chilling temperatures Mommy would not let me out. Enjoy the show, I certainly did.

VROOM, VROOM...

The grocery store just got alot " funner". :):):)

17 months old today

Mommy just wants to share a few new things going on, for the most part everything is the same as a month ago. I am so not into eating but if I am in the mood I will not eat ONE bite from anyone else assisting me. I must do it myself which usually involves 75% of every meal going into the chair, floor etc...
I have not thrown an all out "tantrum" as of yet but I have started to shuffle my feet and spin around in a bit of a circle when told NO or am told not to do something.
I have started to exercise my right to say "no", though I mostly shake my head no, sometimes I will say "na,na,na".
I climb and attempt to stand on anything and everything. Sometimes my choices are certainly not the best but I take it in stride when I fall.

For now that about wraps it up. We are very busy with the holidays and looking forward to our trip to Tennessee in a couple weeks.

Playgroup Holiday Party...

Tonight was such fun... Aidan, along with his Mommy & Daddy hosted a fabulous party for us. We had good food, lots of play and a Secret Santa gift exchange. It was so fun to mix and mingle with everyone and we are so thankful to have so many wonderful families in our lives. A big thank you to The Kavanaugh Family!!!

Rocking, rocking and a little tugging too...

A snow day...

I love my Christmas Tree

So, we have had this tree in our family room for about a week now and I love it. Mommy has a rule regarding touching the tree; I can touch any and every ornament, light or branch but only with ONE FINGER! As you can imagine, even Luey & KoKo are tired of hearing "one finger please". I did hear Mommy telling Daddy what a great job I am doing, afterall, only one ornament has been broken. :)

Sanitary??? Mommy thinks not!

Simply trying to help out around the house...

Hey Mommy, Luey is freezing outside!!!

Little help here...

A visit with Santa...

Today Mommy and me were shopping and she commented on what a silly mood I was in, which apparently got her thinking. I had an encounter with the man in the red suit last week and I simply was not in the mood but today was a different story. There was no line at the mall and I actually sat with Santa for about 10 minutes, we just chatted and shared some snacks.
