Where are the videos?

So, like Uncle Dan, I am getting frustrated with blogger's utter inability to consistently make videos available to readers. Sometimes they're viewable, sometimes they're not. It's an irritation. So, to make myself feel better, I thought I'd post some pictures of James at various intervals from the past several months. And grrrrrrrr, blogger.



This is James reading with his Auntie Erin.
This is James and Grandma at the Botanic Gardens in DC over Christmas. They had this incredible display of trains and little houses and made entirely out of natural materials. It was amazing, but I think James appreciated the trains far more than the intricate craftsmanship.
James saw tons of snow over Christmas in DC. I think it was something like seventeen inches. However, he did not see any snow fall. So, a week or so ago, when snow was falling here, he was euphoric. Apparently snow is the greatest thing ever when it falls out of the sky, but not all that interesting once it reaches the ground.
Sledding was fun though. At least, it looked like James was having fun. I have no idea where my sled is, so there was no big people sledding during this most recent snowfall. Patrick tried to sit in James's sled, but he did not fit.
This, I thought, was incredible. Now, admittedly, I am somewhat biased. However, I drew the heart on the window, and James colored it in. Almost all in the lines! For someone who misses his mouth every other time he tries to stick a piece of macaroni in there, I thought that was pretty good.

Great pictures. Nothing like a happy little boy (other than happy parents). Love the snow pictures. Hey, Patrick - James said for me to tell you to keep your butt out of his sled! Much love to all!

Just catching up on your blog. He's certainly turning into a little man, eh? What a cutie. I love the snow photo.
