On Christmas Eve, Andrew played the quintessential acting role for an infant: baby Jesus. We asked Lynn's brother to video tape the event (video to appear later), though there were apparently some technical difficulties with the new camera. You can see that we all did quite well, especially Andrew (though Lynn didn't tell me we would be leaving in the middle of the offertory). Andrew appeared to enjoy the singing, so we may be able to take him to church often. That would be nice.
The next day (Christmas Day), Andrew showed no excitement at all, even when we opened his stocking for him. I guess it will take a little bit longer before he really understands what the holiday is all about, and maybe a little longer after that before he realizes that it's not really about the presents. This year he received mostly clothes with a few books thrown in. He also managed to buy Mommy (i.e. Lynn) a very nice topaz pendant by stealing Daddy's credit card. I would be mad, but Lynn really liked it.
