Sam's family Christmas

The weekend before Christmas every year, Sam's family gathers together to celebrate. This was a special time for us because we all had been grieving the loss of Great-grandpa Kealoha. He lost his battle to cancer just the week before. Great-grandma, Grandma, Sam, and Lucas posed for a picture. Grandma shared a story with Lucas (probably while Sam was recovering from his wine.) The food was delicious and the company was even better, thanks to Great-grandma, Uncle Chuck and Aunt Lani joining us.

Christmas 2009

What a special day for us....Lucas' first Christmas and it was a white one. We got about 4 inches of snow on Christmas Eve. Then, Lucas gave us the best gift ever....he slept through the night until 8:00 am! That was awesome!!

Santa brought Lucas a little baseball set and he is already swinging at the ball. His family and friends spoiled him with toys, clothes, books, and games. He unwrapped his own packages too (at least he would get them started, but then would get distracted with the next one). Later, he zoomed around the house in his walker. Sam and I enjoyed breakfast in bed then movies on the couch and homemade pizza for lunch. Tanya came to visit and we watched another movie. It was such a relaxing, special day. We hope yours was as enjoyable as ours.

He wants to walk so bad...

Poor thing has been coming home with bumps and bruises on his face. They tell us he is climbing up into the upper shelves and trying so hard to stand and walk. The daycare teachers thought they might have a solution. Check it out!!

Playing Catch Up...

Time tends to get away from us. We haven't kept up with the pics like we have hoped. This is a handful of pics from November plus the crawl video we promised.
