Rutherford's first Christmas was awesomeo! Ned and are were laughing about how different the holiday is now - definitely more difficult (wrangling a baby, adhering to his strict timetable, trying to get everything done while he takes a 30-minute nap, lol), but so rewarding. It was so much fun to see him nomming on wrapping paper and to see what he thought of all the sweet, fun gifts he received.
Some Osh Kosh B'Gosh engineer overalls from Grammy and Grandpa. Can't wait for him to wear these to the miniature railroad at Balboa Park this spring!
Chad and Esther and Sylvian found one of the best baby toys ever - I'm not even sure what it's called, but it jingled and jangled and R loved it!
A Mickey Mouse (!!!) baby laptop from Neddie's sister Ellen. Rutherford is obsessed with mashing on my keyboard so this is great - one he can drool on and bang on the buttons with abandon.
One of the gifts we got him was a band-in-a-box, a little set of elementary school-type instruments. R really likes music and dancing so I thought he'd like us making music for him. There's some maracas, a triangle, jingle bells and multiple wooden noisemaker thingies. He loves it already!
The Houston Grands sent him some goodies, he loves this handmade monkey, he went right for it when he opened it up!
Can't forget the BoSox hat! That one was a surprise for Neddie :) R looks adorbs in it! Merry Christmas to our little boy!

That BoSox hat is funny - it will drive our neighbors crazy! Rutherford was more interested in the crinkly paper than anything else but he was an excellent sport while we opened presents and played with toys.
He looks like he got right into the swing of opening gifts and enjoying the contents!
Love, love, love the handmade monkey!
