Jason enjoyed another Christmas and New Years!
Christmas Eve was spent at home with his Mom, Dad, Robert, Baba, and Dado. Jason built a gingerbread house with his father. It came out very nicely, but was not very structurally sound. We had a fire and a very nice dinner. Jason’s favorite gift (in Mike’s opinion) was a big set of Thomas trains, tracks, and accessories.
The following day, we all traveled to Oxford, CT to visit more family and have lunch at Aunt Janet’s house.
We recently went for a brief vacation in Cancun, Mexico. With so much happening this year, we didn’t have time for a summer vacation, so a few days in an all-inclusive resort was a nice break.
Jason had an absolutely wonderful time. He spent hours in the pool riding on his “water horse” and hours playing in the beach sand burying his cars. He also made friends with some similar aged children during dinner one night. Other highlights included the soap and toilet paper.
Below are pictures of Jason and his “water horse”, in the sand with Robert, and one evening out with the boys.

For about a month, all Jason would want to watch was Max and Ruby. When not watching the show, he would play with his Max and Ruby beanie babies or want us to read his Goodnight Max book.
This has been one of several phases that Jason has gone through involving nonstop playing, talking about, and watching one particular show or movie. It started with a few months of Barney, followed by a few months of Elmo, many months of Cars, and then Thomas the Train.
After his brief break with Max and Ruby, Jason has gone back to Thomas.
He also likes playing with toilet paper.
When Jason plays with his trains, he usually narrates what the trains are doing. Here is a five minute sequence of trains averting or making accidents.
