Christmas, Part 1

Well, Christmas is here, and we are excited!  Ruston did SO well with not messing with the presents under the tree, until last night.

We decided to let Ruston open his presents (well, and ours too) last night since we knew we were going to the Thackxton's in the morning.  Ruston LOVED opening the presents, and didn't really care what was inside. haha





See, he even liked his new jammies!  Jason and I had a lot of fun and joy watching Ruston open presents.  It's really a different thing to watch your own child open presents, even if they weren't his!



Ruston got a shopping cart from us.  He was REALLY excited about this, and had to get it all out immediately... which meant I had to put it together immediately! :)
Our little Christmas at home was wonderful, and definitely a new memory as this was the first Christmas Ruston actually did something like open presents (he was only 3 months old last year).  Next comes the Thackxton Christmas morning!

15 months!!

15 months old! Growing like a weed, and non-stop all the time... in words and in walking!

Ruston doesn't say many actual words besides mama, dada, nana, and keee (kitty). But he sure does babble a lot!
He was being silly and refusing to sit up like I was asking. He loves this bear and cuddles with it quite often. Oh yes, and he's starting to get hair!
Ruston's 15 month stats:

height: 31.25 inches (between the 25th and 50th percentile)

weight: 26 lbs. 11 oz (between the 75th and 90th percentile)

head circumference: 49.6 cm (above 95th percentile)

Yes, our poor child has his father's genes when it comes to height, at least so far. But he has a HUGE head for all the knowledge he is obtaining!!!

This isn't that interesting for most people, but I just had to show how smart he is... trying to hang the wash cloth like mommy does. PS. I'm doing this from my phone, so sorry if it is messed up at all...
