The Journey of James Weston

Sunday, December 11th, 2022 Super busy day! A gazillion photos and videos!  First James started off the day with Mom giving him his favorite vanilla Greek yogurt! [Video] Then we headed off to the zoo but had no idea that it would be lit up for Christmas! They did an amazing job with the lights and holiday entertainment. James could not get over the giraffes and the elephants. [Video] We think because these are animals that he recognizes often and they are just so big! We made the 4:30 gift giving show with the chimpanzees. Dad carried James majority of the day in the baby carrier facing out, so James could get really good views of the animals. James still has quite a few pounds to go to max out the weight limit on the carrier. James went on his first carousel ride with Dad! 🎠 He did cry for the first three loops but then he calmed down and enjoyed it. Dad had him sit on the horse and everything! Unfortunately we did not get a photo! One of the coolest things that happened when Mo...

Saturday, December 10th, 2022 Today James helped Dad make pancakes in the morning.

Mom and Dad read these email to James as they come in. We all love them! JamesWestonAbramowitz@gmail.com

Mom gave James the ukulele for him to play with his right hand and in the video below you'll see that James just turns it around to play with his left hand. He has perfect form from watching Dad play all the time! He is a natural! 🎸 What's interesting is that typically at about 18 months children have a preference for being left or right-handed, and then add about 3 years old it becomes definite. You are not supposed to force a child to be right-handed so we have always been curious, noticing that he typically uses his left more. Did you know that the determination of being left-handed or right-handed is largely based on genetics? 🧬 In the evening, James had peaches 🍑 and he was so excited after every bite!  Check out the cute videos below! 📷 P.S.
