Auggie Christmas Eve/Christmas day photos

[Beanie]

It snowed an inch+ today so tomorrow I will hopefully have snow pics. Until then, here's photos from Christmas Eve and Christmas day.



The "winning" shot in front of the tree this year... usually I shoot a bunch and only one turns out well. This is the one. Unfortunately even this one is slightly blurry.
A LOT of these are crappy because the lighting in this house is so horrible, especially after dark when these were taken, and some of them were easier to correct in Photoshop than others... some just came out awful colour-wise. =/ So sorry in advance.











My mom wanted to put this necklace that lights up on him. He is a very good, tolerant little boy, LOL.




SANTA AUGGIE


He should just be glad I didn't grab the hat with the beard attached to it this year.

No photos of him getting his snazzy presents on Christmas night... I forgot to grab the camera. He got a jolly ball, a brand new bed, and a new fleece blanket (he likes to play underneath it, or I'll cover myself with it and he dances around outside the blanket wookie-noising at me.)
However, we opened stockings on Christmas morning and I remembered the grab the camera:

What? Dis mine, you say?


Oh yes, IS mine!!


HEAD IN STOCKING SHOT


Digging out the new loofa dog toy.

Pause to demonstrate to my dad one of the gifts I put in his stocking.

Return to the stocking...


This brand new red ball is REALLY great. It was an awesome buy.


Playing with it right away.


All the goodies from the stocking. Considerably less than last year, but hey, there's a recession going on... and also, he destroys fewer toys now that he's older so I really, REALLY don't need to buy him more. =P He has plenty.


Posing with his goodies!

Then we just hung out and played all day. It was nice to spend a day just hanging out with my little guy.

This is his new bed! At first he wasn't sure if he liked it, so I told him I had the reciept and we could take it back, but then he changed his mind... he likes it a lot.


Staring some more at the Christmas tree... he really loves Christmas trees. Me too.


OH HAI MOMMY WITH CAMERA


HAAAAAAAAI (oh God this picture cracks me up)


I eats camera?

Layin' on the floor near Momma!


This was after we played with that ball for about an hour. He was tired, so he went back to his bed.


Tired... so tired... so...


snznzzzkzzz


THEN WE HAD SOME SNOWS SO WE PUT ON OUR COATS AND WENT TO PLAY IN IT

I didn't get a good shot of the back of his coat, but it has skulls and crossbones on it and says "ROCK STAR."


Obviously we didn't really get MUCH snow, and the wind was seriously awful. It wasn't too cold, but the wind was super brutal. So we didn't stay out long at all.


Today it was much better but I was at another family Christmas party all day long and it was dark by the time we got back and he got to play in the snow for just a bit. It's still snowing so we should have plenty to play in and lots of daylight for photos tomorrow!
So the end until then.
ETA: oh yeah and you will all be happy to know that I trimmed Auggie's feet up today, LOL. So they look much better now than they do in this pics. =P I honestly DO groom my dog, I promise.
