Let the countdown begin

With the days till Rex's 1st Birthday approaching I remember how important it was to me to keep his birthday and Christmas separate. If I met you and your birthday was near the best holiday in the year I would ask you, "what did your family do to make your birthday so special so close to the holidays?". A couple of cute comments come to mind: a grandmother who always sent her grandson a birthday card and Christmas card (he was born on Christmas), a family who let their child celebrate his half birthday or allowing a child to open 1 present a week leading up to Christmas! Well this year I have decided to go with the gifts leading up to Christmas!!!
I know he does not know any better, but I do! We decided that due to the increasing cold Rex could open his present from Mommy and Daddy! And let's just say that he loves it!
Let's see why...


In addition Grandpa and Grandmas gift came in the mail as well and why go through all the trouble in wrapping it when it was just to big to hide???
He loves this gift as well.....check it out.

What a happy boy......Love that lil smile.

We have two weeks to go until his actual birthday but let all those days be as special as the day he was born. We love you Monkey
