Christmas Shenanigans

 Aki Bear got this lovely little bear ornament in his stocking. Mike thought it was a nod to Nathaniel Hawthorne...it's actually meant to stand for "Aki" and it's on a bear....Aki Bear. (Or Adulterous Bear, according to Mike.)

 

Here is the brown paper package that I made him. I would take an after pic but it basically looks the same. He was more interested in other things and wrapping paper.

 Here he is, content in his Auntie's arms.

 Here is a box of tea that held his interest for a good while.

 Here he is opening a present with Uncle D and Cousin A's help!

I think it was a good morning for the bear. He is enthralled with watching Uncle D cook in the kitchen. He got to gnaw on an apple peel which he really enjoyed.
