Claire's First Christmas

We had an amazing Christmas today! It was so special to have Claire with us for her first Christmas.

Just for fun, here's a picture of me Christmas morning 2008,
8 weeks pregnant:

And the moment I have been longing for ever since,
Christmas morning 2009 with my sweet baby:


Our cute little tree with a fire in the fireplace. So cozy!


Opening presents


I got her her first ornament


But she wanted to play with the bag instead


And it's way more fun to eat the paper than to see what's in it


Heaven!


Matching mommy/daughter slippers. Thanks, Aunt Meredith!


She was super excited about this toy. Thanks, Aunt Liz!
