Christmas day we hung out waiting for everyone to make their way over to GG & Pops' house (one of the few times we couldn't be late somewhere recently since we were staying there, hehe). We ate dinner and made Maddie sweat it until we got to opening presents (she had all the presents sorted by the time we finished eating dinner). Story of the holiday: James was spoiled rotten by GG, Pops, Great Grammy, Uncle Larry, Aunt Kristen, Maddie, Aunt Cassie and Uncle Brian...he loved seeing everyone and all the attention he got (especially from Maddie, he loves her so much). Some fun milestone memories from the week that weren't related to Christmas per se :: James climbing all the way up the stairs for the first time -- all by himself, too -- James finding Charlie's doggie crate and exploring it (he doesn't have access to Easton's usually) -- James' first bath while not being in the toddler tub (quite an interesting experience as GG got in the tub with her bathing suit on to accomplish this major feat -- he's a squirm worm)!
