Christmas time in NYC

We found some great plane tickets to NYC and my Mom has been wanting to go for years...so we went.
Barton and I, Giz and Annie went to visit the Macy's Santa Claus, the waiting line was spectacular. It was decorated like the North Pole.

Here is Barton and Santa, too bad he's looking down :-(

Here is the Rockefeller tree, it was donated by a NY fireman from his property in upstate NY.

Here's the gang by the tree...and yep that's Dewey, he's home from Mexico. He got home late Saturday night and we flew out Wed night.

So this was cool. At Niagra Falls it was so cold that the mist from the falls froze on the trees.

Saturday Attire

Here's the boys Saturday attire, hope the tigers get a bowl this year.

1 year stats

Poor Barton got sick on the night of his birthday, so this is actually the morning after. However I don't think he'd know the difference :-)

At 12 months Barton was:

Length: 29", 25%

Weight: 21 lbs 3 oz, 25% (yay he can turn around in his car seat)

Head circ: 47.5 cm, 80% (Well Grandpa Barton did say that he had a 'Barton' head)

Teeth 11! (#12 came in 3 weeks after his birthday, hope we're done for a while)

Hair: Well maybe one of these days he'll start growing some.

Barton is now a proficient crawler, he gave up the army crawl at 10 months. He is also a very good supported walker, he can walk short distances by himself but is too scared to walk across the room alone. He loves to walk with the huggie box???
