Baby cousins

My 16-month-old nephew came to visit. After a day of everyone doting on the littlest member of our family, the Brain sadly said, "I don't like not being the cute one anymore."

Merry Christmas!

The Brain, after seeing his gifts from Santa: This is pretty much the best Christmas ever! It's stinkin' awesome!

Except for last Christmas. A computer from Santa? Boo yah!

The Spirit of Christmas

We drove around town to see Christmas lights tonight. The Brain, who was sitting next to Pinky in the back seat, was bored and kept tapping on things. He was driving Pinky bonkers! Finally, she had enough and said, "If you can be quiet until we get home, I'll let you give me a kiss. If you make even one sound, the deal's off."

Challenge accepted.

The Brain was as quiet as a mouse. And he got his kiss.
