We wrapped up the end of 2009 in our home spending time with neighborhood friends & their kids. We made it to midnight - but, of course, we put little guy down before the year's end.
We enjoyed the long weekend at home settling back in. (After the unpacking & laundry, that is.) We took Mercer to the Georgia Aquarium. (He's seen here in a bubble behind one of the tanks.) He hasn't been since his first birthday. He was impressed, but - unfortunately - not at his best. 
Maybe he was tired? Or since it was a holiday weekend, maybe there were too many people around? He threw quite a few tantrums. 
We'll try to go again soon, as he "oohed" at a lot of things... and was excited by the fish.
A couple of our friends from out of town stopped by one night and brought their 10 month old. They went out to dinner while we watched the baby. It was interesting to see Mercer react to Todd or me playing with the baby. (He was jealous at times.) Sometimes he had a hard time sharing. 
If the baby started to play with something, then Mercer would want to play with that exact item! Here, Mercer is sharing daddy's hat with Saber, putting it on him. Overall, the two had a good time together... and we enjoyed the time with the two of them. As has been our tradition for a number of years, we have begun the new year with friends - and now a lot of kids - in our home. Soup night has begun! We'll post about the soup events later. Goodnight!
