Snow Baby

As you can see Z saw and touched and ate his first snow during our trip to Cleveland for Thanksgiving. He definitely loved eating it and the feel of it. R and Auntie Laurie made this beautiful snowman for him! We had a great time visiting everyone and i know Gramma and Grampa enjoyed seeing and playing with Z. I'm not so sure about G&G's dogs though...they sat under his chair at dinner time to snap up any treats thrown over the side, but other than that they ran the other way when they saw him coming :) Z loves to be on his feet and i think may skip the whole crawling thing. He loves to be "walked" around the house so he can explore everything. His two favorite things are Bristol, our butler, gift from Aunt Carol, and the Christmas tree. I put all of the safe ornaments near the bottom to he can check them out. Usually pulls them off, looks at them and then discards. So every night i have to re-decorate the bottom of the tree. He also loves to look at the lights.
Weather here has been great, in the high sixties this week with a bit of rain. But at least we are not confined indoors. A week from tomorrow we are off to CT for Christmas for two weeks. I am SO excited to see my fam and Christmas has always been my favorite holiday. Should be interesting to see how Z does with all the presents.
