We spent this past weekend with Zach's family and Isaac opened his first presents. He was so excited but didn't really understand ripping the paper himself. Zach pretty much opened his presents while he anxiously waited to see what was inside. Here are some pictures of the weekend:

The whole Erickson family
Isaac also got a new car seat this past weekend because he didn't fit in the infant carrier anymore. We've got it installed and he seems to really like it. We like it because it's easier to get him in it. With the new car seat came a new winter coat.
We are heading to my parents this afternoon. We want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and hope you will remember the Reason for the Season.
Winter has arrived and as the weather gets colder we have brought Jake inside during the evenings. Isaac is so fascinated by Jake. He LOVES to look at him! The first night we brought Jake in we set Isaac on the floor while we arranged some furniture to make room for our Christmas tree. Zach and I carried a desk downstairs to the basement and when we left Isaac was carrying on a very loud conversation with Jake. Not too long after I heard Jake bark and that was the end of the conversation...Isaac freaked! It took me a little while to get him calmed back down. I brought Isaac over to pet Jake and he seemed to be okay with him again.
Isaac loves to stick his fingers in Jake's nose. Yes, that is disgusting but we have learned that Isaac does some really gross things. The other day I picked Isaac up from the baby sitter and watched him stick his tongue out for their dog to lick. I had to put my hand over his mouth to get him to stop! Bailey was more than happy to accommodate Isaac's wishes!
