Dominic Loves Christmas (and it isn't even here yet!)

Here is one of my famous cheesy early morning grins! 
I love waking up and playing with Mommy and Daddy!
Here I am in my first big boy jammies.
This is one of my favorite ornaments to pull off the tree.

Here I am box-surfing on some of the Christmas packages we got.
I love the pearls too!  This is why Mommy has to redress the tree every night after I go to bed!

Uncle Will's Army Commissioning and College Graduation

Mommy and I were supposed to go visit Daddy in Phoenix over the weekend for his work trip.  But, when Granny and Grandpa were driving down for Uncle Will's Army commissioning and graduation ceremonies, they hit a patch of black ice and were in a car accident.  They were pretty banged up and had to stay in Kansas for a while and couldn't make it to Uncle Will's ceremonies.  So, Mommy and I decided to change our plans and go down to support Uncle Will.  Here are some pics from the ceremonies.

Here we are with 2LT William Webster (aka Uncle Will)

And here I am with Uncle Will the next day at his graduation from Georgia Southern (Mommy and Aunt Sarah's alma mater also).  I'm making the crazy face because it was so windy!
Uncle Will doing a pretty good job of juggling both niece and nephew!
We're so proud of you, Uncle Will!
We can't wait for your wedding in 19 days!!

Christmas Tree Decorating

First off, Mommy wants to apologize to everyone for slacking on the posts!  She has let herself get caught up in unimportant things like work and laundry and cleaning (no laughing, Daddy!), and other VERY IMPORTANT things like playing with me and feeding me and holding me and chasing my very fast self around!
So, she will hopefully be catching you up on me with this post and a few more to follow in quick succession.

The tradition in Mommy's family is to decorate for Christmas on Thanksgiving weekend.
So, that's what we did this year.
Here's the finished product... Mommy went a bit nuts with the lights, adding 1050 to the tree, but I LIKE it!

Here I am picking out the ornaments and ribbon to put up.

This is FUN!  And, yes, of course, that's football on in the background.  The icing on the cake of the day was a great Steelers Victory!

My favorite part was hanging the pearl strands!

Mommy said I was a BIG HELP!
Mommy also wants to apologize for her bum clothes, she was crawling all around and under the tree and didn't want to get nice clothes dirty!
