Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa Enderby

We were so fortunate to have Grandma and Grandpa Enderby here for the holidays. They fell in love with Mr. JXB and gave us new parents some of that very needed new parent relief. Hey, when you guys coming back again? Here are some photos from their trip...


Jackson says, "Hey I can get used to this special treatment stuff, Grandparents are cool!"

The First Christmas with the expanded Brandt-Enderby family!

Elf Jackson's famous grin!

Jackson sporting his cozy handmade blanket from Aunt Jone.


Two very handsome bald guys.


It actually snowed on Christmas, even downtown! Then the next day, a killer rainbow! You gotta love Portland!
Grandma is all play!
I think I hear Santa!!!!
It was Santa! It was Santa! JXB was thrilled to see that even at 8 weeks old, you can score a few presents. This year, to keep things simple in our small place, the GP's (grandparents) brought us a rosemary plant for our Christmas tree and decorated it with small LEDs. It kept the place smelling fresh and came in handy when grandma was whippin' up her famous stuffing!


The GP's loved shopping at IKEA and really got into the spirit of things!


The rain didn't stop these guys from walking all over the city either!

Ahhh, a luxurious holiday spa for Baby Buddah.

A call to the Grandparents in Cleveland, "Hey thanks for all the cool gifts guys!"

JXB high-fives his new life size teddy companion he named Oswald, leaving Mr. Old-news Robot rattle feeling a little left out!

No, you guys can't go yet, we just started to have some real fun! By the end of the GP visit, Jackson gained a whole pound or so (all that good cooking from Grandma), was sleeping better (sleeping on the GP's is better than a sleep number bed floating on a cloud!), and talking up all kinds of crazy goo-goo stories. Can't wait to see you guys again! XOXO - JXB
