Merry Christmas! Love, Gray

Christmas has been SO much more fun to celebrate with Gray! On Christmas Eve, we went to church and then out to eat with Uncle JoJo and Mama and Papa Britt. Afterwards we opened gifts together and Gray had so much fun with… the wrapping paper, of course! Uncle JoJo gave Gray a pink horse to ride and Mama and Papa Britt gave her a wooden stacking/shape sorting toy, a book with family photos, a Bilibo, a stuffed baby in a pea-pod and a set of Karen Katz books. Then we came home to get Gray all nestled all snug in her bed, while visions of sugar-plums danced in her head.

Then on Christmas morning, we woke up and opened Christmas presents in our PJs. We gave Gray books, blocks, a Little People Nativity, Praise Baby DVDs, a xylophone and stacking cups. Grandma Sandee and Grandpa Gary sent Gray books and blocks. Uncle Jack and Aunt Shirley sent Gray a 3-piece outfit and a rolling tiger toy. It has been so much fun playing with Gray and all of her new toys and reading all of her new books with her.

Around lunch time, we went to Uncle Henry and Aunt Cyrece's to celebrate Christmas with the Hatch family. Gray was a bit leery of all of the new faces, but eventually warmed up and enjoyed playing while we were able to catch up with family.

Then we enjoyed a quiet Christmas evening…just the three of us!

Gray is so blessed to be surrounded with people that love her and we are so blessed to have such a vibrant baby girl!
