More from Holyoke and Christmas in Grove St. with the littler cousins. Cecelia can't get enough of holding him.

George's first Christmas

Well, George has been busy on this, his first holiday season. We visited John's parents in Holyoke and his sister Janet and brother-in-law Greg and niece Emily came by too. It was SO fun for George to meet his family. Check out the tiny orange Bolivian sweater that Emily brought back for him after her semester there (check out www.emizersmily.blogspot.com for the blog of her travels).

g is for George

Finally

Cecelia finally gets to hold her cousin George. SO sweet.

Mmmm

George is starting to smile a little, especially after eating. The jaunty angle of the hat is an accidental flourish.

New favorite shots

Cousins

Cecelia and Fiona came to meet their cousin George. They were so patient waiting for several days, and were quiet and almost reverent as they approached him, tiptoeing up and whispering! Cecelia is excited to hold him.
