i'm going to be a big brother!!!

Enough said!











OK, not enough said. I haven't posted in a while so there's a lot to catch y'all up on. I know that's terrible grammar.

So, hmmmm, there was halloween - at school I was one of many Nemos:














And then at home I was, of course, Derek Jeter. Who else?!!










So then there was Thanksgiving. First we had a thanksgiving feast at my school, and mom and dad came by to celebrate with me...and I just had to eat all my mom's food.












Then we had the real thanksgiving at my cousin's house in LA. Doesn't this kind of look like a family feud picture, the way my cousin Sam is just hanging out on top?








And I took lots of fun baths with my cousins - here's a great shot of me and my cousin Sydney pretending to swim in the bath.









And I played in the playground and apparently left about 5 minutes before Weezer showed up to play an impromptu set. I don't know who Weezer is, but it sounds like a very LA occurrence. I love this post-slide action shot!











And then we went and watched my big cousin Sam play soccer. He scored a goal! I missed the actual goal-scoring moment, but I'm told it was very exciting. I had a blast pretending to play soccer with my mini-soccer ball. And how about that shot of all four cousins playing in the field after the game!!





























Then we went to Austin where my grandma got married! It's a lot better than grandma getting run over by a reindeer. So I got to spend time with family on two successive weekends!

Here's a picture of grandma Joyce in her dress with Carl at the wedding.















And here I am with my Aunt Belinda at the reception.
























And here I am with mommy and grandma Joyce.















And cake. Yum.













I saw my Aunt Sam too, but somehow I don't have any good pictures with her. Next time! One last picture, just to show off my new "smile for the camera" smile. I clearly need to work on this.













OK, let's get back to this big brother thing. Just like any only child, I've become quite accustomed to being the center of the world. With that said, I'm kind of excited to have a little sibling that I can trick into doing things for me. And set up to take the blame for my mischeviousness. And punch when my parents aren't looking. I could go on and on.

But did you look at that 3-d picture above? It's an alien, I tell you - an alien has implanted something in my mom, and it's growing inside of her, and it's going to pop out of her chest and start singing "hello my baby" like that scene in Spaceballs. And nobody seems to be worried about it! Are they mad? Look at the picture!!!

I must say, though - pretty cool photo, eh?? :)

Love,
Spencer
