Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve we get a fairly early start and do brunch at my Mom & Dad's with my Earl Daddy (mom's Dad) and some of that side of the family.

After breakfast, Grace and I rode into town to run some errands and then over to my friends Bridget's house to exchange presents with her. Bridget is due in February, so we are very excited to welcome another new little friend into the world very soon!

After we left Bridget's we went home so Grace could nap and I could wrap the piles of presents that needed wrapping! Then it was off to Scott's grandmother's church for their annual Christmas Eve program. It always is a wonderful play and helps remind you of the real reason for Christmas after all of the hustle of present buying, etc that comes with the holidays. It definitely allows you to slow down and really get into the Christmas spirit. After the play we go to the Martin's and exchange presents and visit with them for a while, then it was home to snuggle down and wait for Santa to come!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

Today we're opening lots of gifts, traveling around here and there, and eating lots of YUMMY grub. I just wanted to tell everyone how much we love them and how thankful we are to have such wonderful friends and family.

I can't wait to post photos to share with you Grace's first Christmas! Jesus is the real reason for the season!

Merry Christmas!

Scott, Megan, & Grace

Spoonfuls of Fun

Before supper I let Grace explore with her spoon while I'm getting her food, bib, etc. She eats veggies at night and LOVES squash and sweet potatoes, but carrots and green beans- well not so much.

Sippy Cup

We're beginning to explore new things around here, and we embarked on the *sippy cup*. Grace wasn't quite sure what to think about it. She hasn't been a fan of water / diluted juice anyway, but maybe once she masters the sippy cup that will change. Grace hasn't figured out how to tip it up just yet, but practice makes perfect! Here are a few images on the first night I gave her the cup.

All Bundled Up

They're calling for snow or some wintery-mix around here for this weekend, but we're already a pro a bundling up. Here's my sparkly pants in her little hat, keeping those little ears warm!

G is for Grace

Just a few random pictures of Grace hanging out the other morning. She was sitting on the couch just babbling to me. She loves to clap / patty-cake now, its so cute to watch!

A New Baby Friend...

Just thought we'd give a shout-out to the Hollis family. This afternoon William, Krystle, and Karli welcomed baby *GIRL* Hollis into the world! We can't wait to meet her and for Grace to have a new playmate! Congrats you guys! We love ya!
