First Christmas

Christmas this year was so much fun with a one year old! We spent Christmas in Georgia with my Dad's side of the family a few weeks before Christmas, then we celebrated with my mom's side of the family on Christmas Eve. We rounded it out with Christmas morning at our own house, brunch at the Keesey's and dinner at the Headley's. All in all it was a great holiday season!



Sawyer got a big Mega Blocks truck from Mommy and Daddy and he played with it until we had to leave!
He also played with one of his other favorite toys . . . Daddy. At this point, Sawyer drooled in Daddy's mouth, which he found to be hysterical, but Daddy was less than happy. : )

Uncle Josh got a cute, wiggly Christmas present named Cooper. Sawyer likes him when he's sleepy, but not when he's playful. He's not a big fan of having his ears bitten by a puppy.

Our family on Christmas Day at Granna and Grandaddy's house.


Grandpa Headley had the train set up again under the Christmas tree so Sawyer spent quite a while playing with the trains.

Sawyer got a John Deere from Granna and Grandaddy and he LOVES it! The weather was so nice at Christmas time that we got to spend some time playing in the yard playing with all of his new toys!


While in Georgia we celebrated Grandaddy and Sawyer's birthdays. Sawyer got his first taste of cake and icing, which he thought was great!



Grandpa and Miss Areatha took us all to the Georgia Aquarium and our little man thought it was the best thing ever! He loved all the big tanks and the many different kinds of fish. He stared in awe most of the day!

He loved walking in front of all the big tanks. He would go back and forth trying to follow the fish.

The jellyfish might have been his favorite. He thought they were sooo cool. Hopefully we don't run into any at the beach this summer!


After the aquarium we went to the Varsity for lunch. Sawyer was a little tired, which turned into being a very giggly boy!

Nana and Papa, much to my surprise, got Sawyer a Carolina jersey and matching pants. I was shocked, but since it is Daddy's alma mater we let him wear it. : )

Nana and Papa also gave him a great rocking horse. Emilye, Lawson, and Landon were great at helping him learn to sit and rock on his new horse.
Finally, here is one of my favorite pictures from the holiday season. It captures his sweet smile and his fun loving personality. Hope you enjoy!

He is such a cutie! I love the last picture! I'm so excited about baby boy #2. I'm sure Sawyer will love having a little brother to play with!
