Your first Christmas

We spent your first Christmas in Utah, but we celebrated early with Grandma and Grandpa White. Here you are giving Garrett's new rocking horse a try.We drove through the night to Utah, without Garrett. He flew there with Grammy. I think because there was no brother noise on the ride, you did awesome. We only took you out of your car seat for one diaper change. You slept most of the drive and didn't cry at all.

You did great on our 10 day vacation. A lot of people wanted to meet you and you seemed to enjoy all the busyness.You got spoiled, even though you had no idea what was going on.The biggest new thing with you that happened over the holidays was real smiles. You smile like crazy now and I can't get enough.I wondered if these little milestones would be as excited with baby #2 as they were with #1, and they are!

Four Generations.Great grandma and grandpa Garrett.Temple Square.
You met some new friends.You (barely) made it till midnight on new years eve!We celebrated with just the 4 of us when we got home from Utah. All you got was an ornament, a stuffed owl, and a onesie. You obviously didn't care about any of it, but I wanted something under the tree with your name on it. We do ornaments every year for each other. Last year I got Garrett a "G" and dad got him a sock monkey, so this year you got an "A" and an owl ornament. I'm also making something for your room (even though there's no space for anything else) but I didn't get around to it before Christmas.We love having you with us. Your Grammy loved it too. See said several times over the holidays that she can't believe she has 2 grandkids! She's also really glad you're a girl because with one of each, she can still have favorites!
