Christmas Pics!

When we found out Grady had the chicken pox, we immediately got on the phone with our families to see who was "safe" to visit and who hadn't had the virus before...Luckily, everyone in our immediate families was okay to be around Grady. So fortunately, we were able to go on with most of our plans... There were several people that we didn't get to see, but all in all, we had a great time sharing Grady's first Christmas with everyone! Here are LOTS of pictures from the little man's first Christmas... yes, I realize he looks like a little leper... ha! But I guess these pictures will just serve as a memory of the chicken pox! :)

Grana and Pops came over to our house for Christmas Eve lunch. Grady had a BALL opening his first gifts! He was so intrigued by tissue paper! He would get so into crumpling it up and kicking it with his feet, that he really didn't care much about what was INSIDE the package! His favorite thing was this "Polar Express" bell that Faye had tied onto one of his gifts! He LOVED it and rang it all day long! He knew exactly what to do with it!
Grana and Aunt Viola made Grady the most special book! It was a photo scrapbook of the first six months of his life! HOW SWEET! We were so surprised and had no clue they had been working on it!
We went to Yazoo City to DeeDee and Pete's house for Christmas Eve night and Grady got to open even more gifts!
We've discovered recently that Grady-man LOVES pigs! He gets that from his Aunt Jenny. Beverly (Jon's mom) sent Grady this little pig that sings and bounces all around. He is so fascinated with it! It's definitely a favorite now!

CHRISTMAS MORNING!
Santa came!!!!!

Another pig!!!

My mom gave Grady my silver baby spoon that had my name and birthdate engraved on it. Grady knew exactly what it was for and started putting it in his mouth right away! :)
