The Season That 'Twas.

Christmas came and went....and apparently so did the month of January. Here are some pics from the whirlwind season that is Christmas.

Tania valiantly tries to hold Craig, Jeremy and my cousin Meg.



I take the easy route and just hold Craig and Jeremy.



Jeremy tried to open his first Christmas present. Fortunately, he has an older brother with present opening experience.



Craig had a blast opening presents. Each time you give him a present he always says "OOOoooooo!"




Craig plays Guitar Hero with my cousin Brandon. All Craig does is hold down the green button and strum....which scores more points than it should.



Craig stopped opening presents, so I had to fill in. And I got excited about it.



Here are most of the Mantia cousins sitting in our kitchen eating Cool-Whip. I don't remember whose idea this was, but we are all fortunate that the whip cream went in their bellies and not in our faces.



Here is Jeremy almost rolling over. He is still in the "stuck on my arm" phase of rolling over, but I saw signs of him crossing his leg over which will help the process along.



Also, Jeremy ate solids for the first time this week. He ate rice cereal and did pretty well! (film at eleven). Craig sings all the time, he will sing the theme song to all his PBS favorites as well as Veggie Tales. He also started singing even without music, which I found impressive. I don't know where this fits in the Milestones, but we love our singing little man.
