January 6, 2010: November 2009 Baby Shower

Baby Shower

Mom didn't have time to post these pictures before Christmas, but in November, her co-workers got together and threw a baby shower/wedding party at our house. They brought yummy food and presents and cake. Mom really appreciated their thoughtfulness and I always love the change to be held by new people! Apparently they were told I was big, which was a good thing! At almost 4 months old, I am wearing 6 and 9 month clothes! They fit me strangely though - tight on top and loose on the bottom. Dad says I got his broad torso and Grandpa Klippenstine's short legs, which he says would make me a weeble. What is that?

January 6, 2010: December 2009 Pictures

December, 2009

Wow! December was a big month. Mom and I travelled on an airplane together to Regina and the airline lost my luggage on a direct flight! That scored mom and dad a travel voucher so maybe we will get to go again.

Regina was great. I got to meet Grandpa and auntie Kari and uncle Rob and my cousins Jay and Kennedy for the first time. Auntie Kari made mom buy a jolly jumper. I don't know why they were laughing so hard when they put me in it. Uncle Rob sang me some Irish ballads on Christmas day...one ballad for every 24 beers.

Then, dad came and we did our first big roadtrip to Winnipeg. After the drive to Winnipeg, mom and dad decided to travel at night and we saw New Year's in on the moonlit border of Saskatchewan and Manitoba where mom was breastfeeding me in the back of the car. In Winnipeg, I met uncle Ed and auntie Wanda, Max, Aiden. We went to the art gallery and the mall. Apparently dad says I like shopping and I'm supposed to tell auntie Kari that. All in all a good trip I would say.
