Monkey see

Lately I've been picking up lots of Mommy and Daddy's habits. Like hiking through the forest:

Watching Futurama:

Eating Clif Bars:

Rolling over

Today at 4:57 in the PM, I rolled over. Mama had been telling me for weeks that I need to roll over, but I didn't want to. Today, she put me on my tummy and was playing with me. Then she moved over to my side and said, "Come on, William, roll over and see mama." She was also holding this dragon toy that my friend Annika gave me. I usually ignore her when she does these things, but I really wanted to see that dragon. So I just rolled on over. Before I even knew what happened, she had scooped me up and was hugging and kissing me. Maybe I'll do it again tomorrow, who knows.

A man of many hairstyles

At first, I had hair longer than Daddy's.

Then it went away, and he caught up to me.

Then I caught back up to him.

We stayed even for a while.

Then mine grew longer.

And wilder.

And wilder.

And wilder.

At this rate, Daddy will never catch back up. I've also heard Mommy talk about how she's never going to let me cut it.

I'm forever blowing bubbles

I learned a new trick. I can blow bubbles with my lips. Here, you can check it out.

Mom and Pop get a real kick out of it. When they giggle at me, it makes me giggle too. I'm a riot.

Adorability

I have a tendency to be pretty darn adorable even when I'm trying my hardest not to be.

Baby's (third) first Christmas

I had my final first Christmas this afternoon in Danville with Grandma Barb's family. We all had great fun. My grandparents, great grandparents, aunts and uncles, and great aunts and great uncles gave me many wonderful gifts.

Thanks so much to everyone for making my first Christmas a memorable one (well, for my parents at least).
