Riiiiiiip

Yes, that is the sound of the season this year. Last weekend we had a sneak preview of the big day as Uncle J and Aunt M brought over their gift early. While the whole sequence of events was entirely new to Monkey, he figured out what was going on fairly quickly:

He needed a little help but was ultimately victorious in his struggle with the wrapping paper:


Thankfully, we had 4 adults to assemble the gift so that went fairly quickly (and we love Uncle J and Aunt M for NOT including batteries!). Monkey provided some invaluable assistance with the instructions (mostly en Francais)

And now we are able to fully enjoy our most excellent Christmas present (which was re-adjusted immediately following this video, so he is at the proper height now):

Thank you, Uncle J and Aunt M!

We see the Brilliant Pediatrician on Monday for shots and stuff. We'll post an update on the ongoing tummy saga after that.

Happy Holidays!
