Pepicek's household has been busy preparing for, celebrating, and cleaning up after the holidays. We have been attending Solstice Parties, baking, decorating and eating cookies, sledding, and celebrating with friends and family. Here are a few highlights from the past week.
On Christmas eve, Felix was most excited about eating this cookie. First he sucked all the frosting off of it, and then he ate maybe one-third of the actual cookie. It looked pretty gross by the time he was done with it, but, as usual, he handed it to one of his moms - we're not sure why...maybe to save it for later? Clearly he's very conscious of his carbon-footprint.
Felix got this awesome banjo from his TX Aunt and Uncle Bonnie and Joe, and his cousin Andie. It was definitely his favorite Xmas gift. He strummed it all morning, after his nap, and even before bed. His mamas only wish that it could be tuned so there could be some semblance of a melody to the instrument.
After his nap, Felix took a little walk with his nana, grandpa and mama Nicola. Juxtapose this image to last year's
Xmas walk. Can you believe how big he's gotten?
After the small blue sled was rejected, we borrowed a bigger one, and proceeded to sled down a neighbors hill with glee. Each time we got to the bottom of the hill, Felix would make the "more" sign, asking to go down again. His mama and grandpa both took turns riding with him down the hill. Definitely the high point of everyone's Xmas day.
While we laid pretty low on Boxing Day, the day after, we ventured out on the icy roads to meet the Pine Clan for breakfast at Bakery on Grand. Felix had a great time hanging out with grandpa in a separate booth. And heads up to any parents out there reading this blog - the restaurant has awesome boxes full of toys they will give you for your kid to play with.
And last but not least, Felix got to catch up with his friends Zora and Soren, both of whom were born within a month or so of him. They had a great time playing, jumping hugging, and attempting to share with each other.

Felix looks like he's trying to sell that cookie in that photo. The latest youth media reporter advocates making media with children under age 8. Perhaps a cookiemercial is in Felix's future?
