Well, I have my two front teeth, so we're good there!
I had a GREAT Christmas!!
It all started over a month ago when my Mommy put up our Christmas tree and started playing all sorts of cool tunes that we would dance to every day. Then the shopping and present wrapping started. I really enjoyed "helping" to wrap presents. Next came the baking and THAT was the best!! Cookies, fudge, candy and squares galore! What a glorious time!
We celebrated Christmas with my Mommy, Daddy, Gramma Llama, Oompa Loompa, Uncle MoMo, Uncle Lolo and Aunti Jamie on the 23rd. We opened presents at my house, then we had a nap. At 4 pm we went over to Gramma and Oomps and had a fondue (or "fon-don't as my Dad calls it) supper and opened more presents. My Great Grandpa Bill and Connie were there for that. It was a great time and I sure got a lot of nice presents! I sure enjoyed playing in all of the boxes!
The next day Mommy, Daddy and I got up early and loaded up our Vue. It was Christmas Eve. We spent the whole day driving to Eastend, Sask to see my other family members. We arrived at about 7 pm just in time for turkey dinner with Pop Pops, Gramma, Uncle Dev and Auntie Carmen. I was lucky enough to get to open a cool lawnmower from Dev and Carmen and a fun puppy that sings from Gramma and Pop Pops.
The next morning I woke up to find that SANTA had come in the night. He brought me the most spectacular present you've ever seen! It was a John Deere train on a track, just my size!! I was a little unsure of it at first, but boy, once I got the hang of it I was sure proud of myself!
On Christmas day we went to Great Uncle Hal and Great Auntie Lorna's house. All of the Tophams were there. It was a great time and I loved visiting all of my family members and playing with my cousin Tylan's John Deere toys. We had a great meal too! We went home a bit early that evening. By the middle of the night I had a fever and wasn't feeling well. I was pretty under the weather all day on Boxing Day. I just wanted to snuggle and the Tylenol helped keep my fever from getting too high.
The next day I was feeling much better. I was back to my old busy self and getting into all sorts of mischief! We stayed in Eastend til early on the 29th. I really loved the time I spent visiting my family and going on sleigh rides with Gramma. I hope we get back there again soon!
Here is a picture of me with my Great Grandpa Bill Topham.
We got home on the afternoon of Dec 29th. I helped my Gramma and Oomp paint their house on the 30th so my Mommy and Daddy could go on a date! They went to a movie and a grown-up restaurant. I know they missed me the whole time though.
On New Year's Eve my Gramma, Oomp and Uncle Morgan came over for Chinese food and we played games. It was a great way to ring in 2007. I didn't make it til midnight, but then again, neither did my Oomp. We were both snoring away by 10 pm.
On New Year's Day we had a nice roast beef dinner with my Great Grandpa Bill and Great Gramma Connie, Mommy, Daddy, Gramma, Oomp and Uncle Morg. We played some more games and watched movies. I could get used to this! It was so nice to spend time together, especially since my Uncle Morg is moving to Montreal soon!
Today my Mommy and Daddy took me back to the eye specialist in Calgary. This is the same Dr who did eye surgery on me when I was only 6 months old. She checked my eyes over and put special drops in to make the pupils dilate. Mommy said I looked like a doe-eyed cartoon character with my big black eyes. The Dr checked me over with special lenses and said that I can see things really well far away, but had a hard time focusing up close. That would make my eyes cross a bit when I try to look at things up close. The Dr said that I need glasses to help with this. After we left the eye Dr we had a nice lunch at Denny's. I love their kid's meals because they have chicken and grapes! I also had a few of Mommy's fries and I am getting really good and dipping them in ketchup!
After lunch we went to the store where they sell glasses. They had lots and lots of pairs to choose from, even for a little person like me! I tried on a couple of pairs and everyone cheered and told me I sure looked handsome. Yup, I agree!! I sure hammed it up and gave everyone a dapper smile with my glasses on. The nice ladies at the store then had to measure my nose and eyes, and I was getting pretty annoyed with the whole production at this point. I was sure tired of all the running around! Finally we were done and I got to have a nap all the way home.
Tomorrow we have to go back to Calgary to get my new glasses. I will be sure to post a picture of my NEW LOOK so you can all see how handsome I am!
Love,
William
