Christmas has come and gone and today is a whole new year. Wow.
You had a wonderful and busy first Christmas and were spoiled beyond belief! Santa treated you well, as did all of your family and friends. You're one lucky and loved little girl.
The holidays are always a whirlwind, you'll learn that as you get older. We spent Christmas Eve hanging out with grandma while daddy worked. Then you, me and daddy spent a quiet evening at home. You woke up to a tree FULL of presents. Daddy and I had to help but you did a pretty good job opening things on your own and you were soooo excited about all of your new toys. After a quiet day at home, we headed to your great aunt Sherry's for dinner with grandma's family. You were a hit, so happy and just loved being the centre of attention! The following weekend we went to visit grandpa and grandma Leslie (Uncle James and Michelle were there as well as Uncle David and Auntie Jo). You were spoiled once again!
New Year's Eve was spent at home. First we went out for dinner to Boston Pizza, then a quiet night in. You haven't been sleeping well the last week so none of us made it until midnight!
All in all it's been a wonderful holidays but sooo busy! AND it's about to get a whole lot busier! We just bought grandpa and grandma Leslie's house and will be moving in less than two weeks! AND we booked a trip to MEXICO on January 21st! So many things happening!
More about you:
you're not crawling yet but you're getting up on all fours and rocking back and forth. As of yesterday, you are able to get some laying down to sitting (amazing watching you do that for the first time - I was so excited I called everyone! haha).
You haven't been sleeping well over the last week and have been a little fussy and clingy (which isn't like you at all). I think you're growing a lot and going through lots of changes. Today you seemed happier though and had a nice long nap (giving mommy a nice break).
You are still such a happy baby and you've got such a fun personality. You're always smiling and showing off your 6 teeth!
There's no question you're a daddy's girl, he walks in the door and you scream with excitement.
You are now eating lots of different foods but it's still mostly pureed. We are trying to give you more finger foods (but I'm so afraid you'll choke!).
We got you your very first passport for our upcoming trip!
The hair, oh my the hair. You seriously have so much and such long hair. I don't think there's a day that goes by where some stranger doesn't comment on it.
I'm sure there's so much I'm forgetting. I truly hope that one day you'll read these letters and realize how much joy you've brought to our lives and what a gift you are.
Love you sweet girl
