My First Swanson Christmas

Mommy says that every year we have a big Swanson family get together for Christmas. This is my first one, so Mommy had to take a TON of pictures. My brothers also got to come with me, their first one too! It got moved from Morris to Alexandria this year and we stayed at a really nice Holiday Inn. It had a huge pool and game room, I even went swimming for the first time! I had a blast playing in the water with my big brothers and meeting a lot of new family.

Enjoy the Pictures.

Love to all!

A special thanks goes out to My Great Aunt Judy and Uncle Keith for making the special weekend so great for us!

Christmas with the Worsters

Today we had Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa Worster. They drove from Menahga to spend the day with me and my brothers, oh and Mommy and Daddy. Grandma brought us all sorts of yummy treats and Mommy and Daddy made roast, potatoes, corn, and all the fixins.

Mommy says we have one Christmas left next weekend! This Christmas thing is hard work... it comes EVERY YEAR? Wow, lucky me!

Love to all!
- Mr. A.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE

The Worster family wishes peace and love to all family and friends!

Christmas at Home!

Today we got to open presents with my brothers and Mommy and Daddy! My brothers got some PS2 games, a digital camera and some Transformer games. I got a lightup bug from my brothers, a fun sports standup games and a walker. I can't wait to be big enough to learn how to use all of these cool new things!

Christmas with Great Grandpa Sorbel!

Today, Mommy, Daddy and Me traveled to Dalton, MN to have Christmas with my great Grandpa Herb. We ate some good food and had a great time playing with all of my aunts and uncles.
Here are a few pics from our trip.

Christmas with Grandpa Rod

Today we opened presents AGAIN with Grandpa Rod. My big brothers got new laptops and I got a cool zoo train that makes a lot of noise.
Mommy and Daddy love it!

My Cool New Chair!

Now that I'm almost sitting up on my own and eating so good, Mommy and Daddy got me a cool new chair. I can even sit with my family at the table! It's so fun growing up!

Christmas at the Larsons

This past weekend, me and my family drove 8 whole hours down to see Grandma and Grandpa Larson and my uncle Cody. Mommy and Daddy were tired, so we stayed in a motel room on Thursday night. On Friday, we were able to play with Grandma and Grandpa while my big brothers played outside in the snow and ice, and rode the 4 wheeler. Then on Saturday, we took some family pictures and opened some pretty Christmas gifts. On Sunday before we left, I got to meet the big jolly guy - SANTA CLAUS!

Enjoy the pictures!

!BIG BOY!

I had my 4 month shots today, yes a little late, but I weighed in at 18 1/2 pounds and 26 1/2 inches long. My doctor told Mommy that I need a new car seat. I hate those shots... mean nurses.

Love to all,

Cousin Cassie's 3rd Birthday!

We had a blast at Cousin Cassie's 3rd birthday party! We went to Chuck E. Cheese. She got a TON of Dora Stuff, she's a Dora nut! I can't wait until I'm older so I can play some games like my big brothers! Here's some pictures from her birthday.

My New Roomy!

Because I'm such a big boy now and sleeping through the night, Mommy and Daddy moved me into my big brother, Sean's bedroom. Now, Brandon has his own bedroom - lucky him. Here's me and by biggest bro chilling in his new bedroom! I really like his bed!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

I hope everyone had a great Turkey Day and drove safe!

We all went to Menahga to visit Gramma and Grampa Worster.

We ate big, took a nap, then played some cards! Gramma, Mommy and Sean's team won BOTH games! I even tried my first mashed potatoes, they were yummy! I met daddy's friends, Eddy and Angie, they were REALLY nice. I even initiated Angie into my "Spit-up all over" club! Ha ha.
Gramma's puppy, Minnie LOVED me! Isn't she cute?


Anyways, enjoy the pics and see you all soon for the next holiday.

Love to all!

Love ya all!

Happy HALLOWEEEEEEEN!

Hey everyone!! I hope you all had a great and SAFE Halloween. I was a little devil, aren't I cute, AND scary?!! We went and saw grandpa Rod at his work and saw a ton of other kids. My cousin Cassie was also a little devil, and Ray was the guy from Scream, or the Grim Reaper. I tell ya what, it sure is hard work being the devil!! Maybe next year I can go trick or treating with my big brothers.
Enjoy the pics!

Love to all!

Some Updates

Hi everyone!

Since i'm getting so big, I figured it's time to make my blog more "big boyish."

I hope you all enjoy it!

Also, because I am so forgetful and miss some things at times, I will no longer be posting Birthdays or Anniversarys on my blog. I don't want anyone upset with me for forgetting special occassions, so we'll avoid this all together.

Love to all

My Cereal Debut!

Wow, growing up is SO much fun! Look what I get to do, eat CEREAL! It's pretty yummy and helps me sleep through the night. I know how much Mommy and Daddy like that. It's fun to get messy!!

GO NDSU Bison!

Today, the whole family went to the NDSU Homecoming Parade, GO BISON!
I didn't see anything until the noisy Firetruck horn went off in front of us and woke me up. After that, I was all smiles! My brothers got a ton of yummy candy, I sure wish I could eat some. We saw Governor Hoeven and a bunch of Bison! It was such a beautiful day, so we then went to eat at Burger Time. We had a great Day!

Enjoy the pics!
Love to all!

Brandon helped Mommy get this picture of me smiling. No pearly whites yet, but I gotta admit, I sure am cute! Don't ya think?
Love ya all!!

My Baptism

I had such a busy weekend, I'm exhausted and now have a cold but I figured I better get these pictures online so everyone can see me in my Baptismal outfit.

I was Baptized and brought into God's world on Sunday. There were so many people here to help me celebrate my special day. We missed Brandon, Sean and Grandma and Grandpa Worster dearly and wish they were here with us. Here are some pictures from the special day.

Enjoy!

Love to all!

P.S. - HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to Grandma Janine and Grandpa Bob.
They are celebrating 19 years today!

All Smiles

For some reason, I was all smiles today! Mommy was able to catch me on camera.

Enjoy my cute pics!

Happy Birthday

...To Grandpa Rod. Today he's another year older!!

Go, Grandpa, Go!

This weekend, me and the family went to watch Grandpa Rod play softball in the Can-Am tournament. We saw some really weird looking people, including Hulk Hogan. You can barely see me in all of his feathers, but I'm there!! We had lots of family there to cheer Grandpa and the other family players on.
His team took 2nd place! We're so proud of him!
