Christmas in Memphis


I'll keep this brief since, yet again, I'm woefully behind and have lots to report. So, here's a quick punchlist:

1. After celebrating my first Hanukkah (rumor has it there are eight nights-my slacker parents only celebrated one), I traveled to Memphis over Christmas for another family visit, this time so my Grandpa and Bobelepie could show me off at various and sundry holiday parties. My charm and responsiveness generated all kinds of effusion, including but not limited to: "He's even more adorable in person - who knew it was possible?" And some of my most loyal followers got to meet me in the flesh, face to face. They pretty much stood star-struck while I smiled and gave the occasional courtesy chuckle.

2. I also got to enjoy Christmas day with my Episcopalian brethren, when I met and became bff with one of my mom's dearest friends.

3. Per usual, I was a champ on both legs of the flight - traveling only with my mom this time. We got stuck in a middle seat, so I just charmed the pants of the folks on either side of me. The lovely woman on my right had severe aerophobia - turns out she was most grateful for my babble and kicking, which distracted her through take-off and landing.

All in all, another wonderful visit filled with lots of kisses and pinched cheeks. Visual aids below.
