An Estee Family Christmas

Yesterday, the Estee's traveled to Tewksbury for the annual Estee Family Christmas. Mimi, Papa, Auntie Heather, Uncle Mark and Paige were all there for a nice dinner of ravioli, meatballs and sauce. It was very yummy! As usual, they spoiled Connor with lots of fun toys. He is one lucky kid! He didn't quite know what to make of the presents, and really just wanted to walk around (yes, that's ALL he's been doing lately. Very little crawling anymore!). Once he got a look at some of the toys, though, he quickly settled on mom's lap to have a look-see. He definitely likes all the lights and noise that came from ALL of his new toys (I heard the word "payback" a few times from Heather... could that be because we did the same thing with Paige a few years ago?).

Despite very snowy conditions on the South Shore, we were happy we made it to Tewksbury. We had a great time! Thanks, Mimi & Papa for hosting, and thanks to Auntie Heather for the yummy meatballs and sauce!

You can see the rest of the pictures from the day on the slideshow to the right!


Connor decided that small bites of ice cream on a spoon weren't enough. Why not just pick up the frozen ball of ice cream instead?

Playing hard. It's nice to have a partner in crime.


Connor's new driving toy. He loves it!


How true is this shirt? You've seen how many times Connor's taken off his clothes... I tell ya, that kid went from hating to be naked to loving it in about 3 seconds flat!

I LOVE this picture. At one point while opening gifts, Connor walked right up to me, stretched his arms out, and gave me a HUGE hug AND kiss! This rarely happens, so I'm pretty happy Heather got a picture of it!

More toys that make noise! Hey, that rhymes.

I had to put this picture in... this is what Connor does when he sees a camera. Yes, folks, this is his smile. How funny is that?!

A nice moment with Papa.
