Christmas Morning
Hannah's first Christmas was absolutely delightful. We slept in a little bit (til 8:00am) and mosied on down in our pajamas to the tree to let the festivities begin. Hannah was reluctant to open all the presents. I think she wanted to play with each one first - you know, kick the tires a bit. She got tired of opening presents all together about halfway through so Mom and Dad had to take over. We made a big deal over each gift - which in hindsight might have been a tad overwhelming. All in all, it was a very good time. I just had to take a picture of the mess we made.
After we cleaned up the aftermath, we headed over to Aunt Jean's for a family get together. The closeup of Hannah is my absolute favorite - I worked on it in Photoshop and had it made into a painting via Winkflash. Not sure where it is going to go, but I'm sure we will find a spot. The one picture of Hannah looking like she is tripping is of...ahhh Hannah tripping. Please note, she caught her balance and did not fall after this picture was taken. I like the fact that she never let go of her "baby". The last picture is of handsome Greyson who apparently just scored a touchdown. Or maybe the Cowboys did. heehee.
Chris and I have been married for over fifteen years (yikes!) and we have grown our family through the adoption of our little girl, Hannah. We setup this blog to allow our family and friends to share in this exciting time with us as we wait for the referral of second child from China.
