A new Christmas angel!

Our holiday season was enhanced this year by the addition of Grace to our family. Here she is with her Aunt Sarah who informed us that she had "first dibs" on the baby since she was only home for a few days! As always, the retailers were out for every available dollar to be had by new parents and grandparents. Yes, I did make a last minute run to Babies R Us Christmas Eve, morning for "one more thing". But, I wasn't the only one. The checkout lines kept us captive and lured us with bins of "first Christmas" ornaments. If you can believe this, one ornament was for the "new mom and baby" not even born yet! It was a clay like torso with a baby bump!
Christianne, Brian and Grace also spent New Year's Eve. with us and a few friends. Not wanting to miss any of the excitement, she was still awake when the ball dropped. I fear she may be a party girl like her mother!
