Merry Christmas!

 Merry Christmas!

We had Christmas morning at home with the girls.  We opened presents and had fun looking through what we gave each other.  A much better way to spend a Christmas than running back and forth to the hospital like last year!

 Lydia loves books!

 Eliza and Talia got their Elsa and Anna Barbie dolls they were hoping for!

 So excited!

 Presents from our Moody cousins!  Thanks guys!

 Then we headed over to mom and dad's for brunch and more presents!

 Lydia got the hang of opening presents!

 The girls with their robes and pajamas from Grandpa and Grandma Great!

 Later that day we had Christmas dinner at our house.  We even had a visit from Dad's foster brother Joe and his family.  It was a fun day of gift giving, visiting with family, and remembering the birth of our Savior.

Merry Christmas!

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve we gathered with the Moodys at Chris and Missy's house for a yummy dinner, nativity, and cousin gift exchange.

 Mary and baby Jesus

After we got home that night Grandpa and Grandma, Andy, Julie, Brayden, and Owen joined us to act out the nativity and get ready for the night.

Cookies ready for Santa...so exciting!

Merry Christmas Eve!

Happy Birthday Lydia!

A year ago December 19th this little lady made her entrance into the world.  It was a rough start but we couldn't imagine this last year without the joy she has brought to our lives!

She is one strong, determined, sweet, happy, smiley, loving, snugly, special little girl.

Happy Birthday Lydia...we love you!

 Lydia celebrated a birthday weekend...unfortunately she wasn't feeling the best.  She had RSV for a few weeks and her little panda neubulizer became her best friend.  (Obviously...can't you see it in her face!)

 The night of Lydia's birthday we made gingerbread houses.

 Then on Saturday it was time to celebrate!

 We had family over for dinner and cupcakes.

 Though she preferred her squeezable food over a cupcake.

 Happy 1st birthday Lydia!

We love you!
