A Very Merry Christmas

Joy, peace, love and gratitude are the 4 words that filled my heart this Christmas. Life is so much more complete with a child in our home and her love in our hearts. We are so thankful for our wonderful family and friends, and their generosity this holiday season. Cora did well as we toted her from house to house and she ate a ton of food! Our house is definitely full of toys now...most of which make lots of noise. Cora couldn't be happier as she crawls from toy to toy and turns them all on! :) Happy Holidays to everyone and a safe New Year!

We spent Christmas Eve with grandma Bettie (my dad's side) and Cora was overwhelmed with kisses from her cousin Henry (6.5 months) - she looks so thrilled :)

Hurry...Run from the kisses :)

Unwrapping her new activity table...so intense

Forget the present; paper is much tastier!

Trying out the new activity table
Her new wave drum (no batteries required - yes!)

Checking out her stocking goodies!

Petting her new pony (thanks grandma & grandpa) :)

Telling us how much she loves the pony!

Riding her pony...yay!

We headed to my parents house for Christmas Day fun, food and family! (and enough presents for Cora to fill our car!)

So cute...and check out her load of toys - sheesh!

So excited :)

Apparently the best part about Christmas - the boxes!

She loves her new walk n ride bike!
