A Merry Little Christmas

Reed spent his first Christmas in Summerville surrounded by lots of family! We attended party after party with Reed and he was such a pro. He never once made a peep about being passed from one person to another. This kid definitely has a lot of people who love him and we are so grateful for that! He kinda sorta paid attention to his gifts. I think everyone around him enjoyed it more than he did. I think next year will be much more fun for him! He did get a good taste of all of his gifts though.

Christmas at Grandmother and Granddaddy's

Grandmother and Granddaddy

We enjoyed our annual Christmas party dinner of barbecue, shrimp and my Grandmother's homeade blue cheese dressing with salad. I know it isn't your normal dinner, but we love it and I look forward to it every year! I can't wait until Reed is able to eat this meal with us!

Marin, Reed, Marc and Kallan (Notice that Reed has on his pj's. This was due to an accident that he had earlier in the day. Ugh! This has started happening more frequently these days!)

Christmas at Mike Mike and Kath's

There are so many kids on Chris's side of the family that Christmas is never dull at their house. It is so much fun to watch all the kids rip into their gifts. We can't wait until Reed is in the middle of all of them next year.

Reed chewing on his fingers. He's really good at doing this during the day but forgets that he has them at night, lol!

Christmas with Nana and Granddaddy

This was an especially special Christmas with my parents. This year was the first time that they had had a baby in the house since Marc was a baby. I have to admit that Christmas is that much more fun with a baby! I know that my parents loved having our new addition to the Christmas party this year!

My mom got this super cute bag from Pottery Barn with Reed's name on it. They just stuffed all his toys in it. So cute!

Reed in his snowsuit. We had planned to go to Lake Tahoe so that Reed could play in the snow, but that fell through. We are going to have to find him some snow sometime soon because he absolutely loved his snowsuit.
