Christmas on Fort Myers Beach

Early Christmas

We had our family Christmas yesterday here at home before we go to Florida. We realize he doesn't quite understand Christmas yet - but he sure understands getting gifts. His dad got him his first train track. The starter set - I have a feeling there will be many many more Thomas gifts over the next few years... He hasn't put the train down.

He has also just started standing on his own and walking most of the time. Ben explained it like a beginner on ice skates that has to run into something to stop... that is exactly what he looks like with his arms straight out.

Yesterday was a huge day of growth for him. We watched him get better walking from the morning to the evening. It seemed to happen so quickly.

Comedian

Have we failed to mention what a jokester Keenan is these days? He is constantly trying to make us laugh by doing silly things. He is also going to be one of those people that laughs at his own jokes...it's too funny!

Pajama Play Date at Carolyn's

Bailey wasn't sure to know what to think about Keenan in her wagon. Then she started pushing him around - it was adorable!

Christmas Party

We spent the weekend in downtown Nashville for the CareAll Christmas party. A fun little stay-cation...

Christmas play date

Trying to get a pic. of all the kids was too funny. These were only about half of them that were there. Believe it or not, I am thinking there were over 20 kids at one point in the evening.

Our First Fisher Christmas Tree

So it was very important to bring home a special tree for Keenan this year from Ben's family tree farm (the Fisher Tree Farm). It made it through a 12 hour- two day drive on top of our car (through a snow storm and rain storm - therefore - we are very proud. Keenan is at an age that ornaments are absolutely not an option.

Wanting to still have it decorated I tried to get a little creative and make a Santa Claus tree. This was a year we wanted the tree to look like it was done specifically for Keenan - and not a fancy dressed up tree. So here is Keenan's very own special Fisher Santa Tree.
