Christmas Joy

Christmas has always been a big deal in my family.  Sure there was excitement over the gifts and unhealthy food that was approved for a few days, but we always looked forward to our family traditions and time together.  I hope we can create the same memories for Jack that are so fondly engraved in my mind and heart, courtesy of my parents/family. 

Jack had several days of excitement seeing his family from both sides.  It included his cousin Lucy helping him with his bath, sweet kisses from his cousin Sophie, lots of hand holding with Lukey, there was no shortage of love & affection for our sweet boy.  He was doing a bit of teething on Christmas Eve, but aside from that he did pretty well with unwrapping & checking out his new toys.  He happily banged on his drum, read   chewed his books, peeked in his stocking, clicked his remote, etc.  Here are a handful of photos from the past few days of celebrating what is sure to be our purest Christmas joy... 

Now we will enjoy some time relaxing at home and recharging for the start of what is sure to be a great New Year :)
