Christmas

We had a very nice Christmas...it was as wild and hectic as we expected it to be, but fun! My family was in town for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day so we had a few days to spend together. The best part was having the babies together for the holiday. They had their picture taken with Santa, shared toys, and we even gave them their first baths together. I thought the whole experience would be lost on Nate, and granted for the most part it was, but he really loved tearing the paper off the packages and chewing on the ribbons...and he loved all of his gifts. He went straight to playing and has only stopped to eat and sleep.



The day after Christmas, we drove to Knoxville and celebrated again with The Cox's. Nate loved having more attention showered upon him - and more gifts (and paper and ribbons)!

We took a ridiculous amount of pictures this week but I pulled out a few pics for an small album (see right).

So, all in all, Nate's first Christmas was wonderful. I know that what I will remember won't be the stress of the mall and the cooking and cleaning, but rather the time we got to spend together with our families and the adorable smiles I saw on Nate's face this week.
