rj’s first christmas 2009

we headed to CA on december 18 to celebrate my dad’s 70th birthday and stay through christmas. rj did great in the car...the dog, not so much! here are some photos of friends and family we saw while we were in CA and of course, of christmas...it was a long and fun celebration!

oh and rj’s first tooth finally broke through while we were there...dec. 20th to be exact! that explains some of the drool...
