This picture is just cute. Loves putting on dad's hats. And they fit.
Robinson Family Christmas Party. Gavin was a rebel when it came to singing - wouldn't sit still. But he's got an awesome belly.
Enter Santa.
His new found love...Elmo.
Robinson Family Christmas Eve. Gavin loves his cousins. He loves hugs. Put the two together and you've got a great combination
Cute picture taken before dinner and red jello ruined everything.
Gavin loved looking at everyone else's presents. He was wondering what was going on, but he started to figure it out. New stuff = fun.
Christmas Eve. This is the first year in my entire life that we've been alone with nothing to do (family parties) or anyone to be with. It was nice to have just the three of us do Christmas jammies and watch a movie. Simple and cozy. After Gavin went to bed, I challenged Brian to a game of Trivial Pursuit. Family version for ages 12 and up. Turns out we are not super smart. In an hour we got 3 chips TOTAL. I just want to eat this kid.
He was bouncing off the walls. (Has been every night since.) He knew something good was coming...
Watching the Christmas classics. He's been begging for Santa and Rudolph all month. I put them away, happy to not see them again until next year.
Christmas morning. Gavin slept and slept. I was so excited for him to get up. Brian had the video camera out as he walked down the hallway. This 18-month-old boy slowly walked down the hall and said, "Wow."
He got a popper (my dad says I'll live to regret that decision), a train, a microphone, and a book. The bike is from G&G Robinson. We put it together and pretended that it was Santa. Cheating? Maybe. But he loved it.
Luggage from G&G Woolf.
My new scriptures. My first pair that says "Robinson" on them. I've been waiting awhile for these.
Brian's tickets to the Jazz/Laker game in February.
Gavin learned the word 'bow' and thought it was a hat. He wore this for at least an hour.
Playing a little Guitar Hero with dad.
A fun, fun Christmas. So glad to spend it together with our little family. It was fun to see how involved Gavin was this Christmas. He was so content all day. Can't wait to see his face next year.

He looks so much older for some reason and I just saw him last month! Seriously. Glad you had a wonderful Christmas. I loved all the pictures. I hope you got his "wow" on video. Last year Carson would say "this is gonna be so good" before he opened any present. So funny.
Oh and about that popper...we had one and I didn't mind it at all. It drove Matt nuts and I think he "accidentally" kicked it and it never popped again.
Thanks for the update! This Christmas Eve Paul and I opted out of any family get-togethers and did the very thing you did... jammies, movie, and a game. It was so nice to have our own celebration (although we love family too!) Have a great time on your trip!
Kennedy got a pink popper amongst her gifts as well. So far I still think it's adorable, especially since she pulls in behind her as she runs instead of pushing it out in front of her.
It seems like a lot of "us" (meaning you know, people I know) did Christmas on our own for the first time this year. Must mean we're all getting old! It was nice though, and so peaceful.
Looks like it was a good one! Love the guitar hero face; he looks totally enthralled.
Gavin is just so darn cute! I love the picture with his bow. How adorable is that!?!
What a cute, cute baby! I can sure tell who's boss around your house!
Saw you on the news tonight...congrats on an amazing accomplishment. Do blog about it so that we can all hear how this awesome award came about.
