Despite both G and Kate being under the weather, Kate still had a really wonderful first Christmas. We went to G’s parent’s house on Christmas Eve for their annual family get together, spent the night, and that’s where Kate woke up on her very first Christmas morning!

A Baby Signing Time video ? This is my favorite Christmas EVER! |
Kate is soooo cute! Especially with that hair and those red pjs. Happy New Year to you and your lovely family!
S.
OMG the hair. Love it. Kate, you are too cute!
Where did you guys get that fun play cube thingy (with all the beads and doors and loops… you know, the doctor’s office toy – that’s what our daughter thinks it is)? So cute! Mine would love that.
Her hair is awesome! Where did you get her wooden toy…it’s really neat!
Kate is absolutely adorable! I love, love, love her hair! How is she feeling post-surgery? My baby girl and I have been saying prayers for her!
Isn’t that big wooden toy the BEST?!?!
Pfft, haha, that’s what she said. (Sorry, couldn’t help myself!)
These are such great pictures
Her hair cracks me up. I love it! So cute!
What a sweetheart! Glad she had a good first Christmas! Love the hair so darn cute!
Even though she wasn’t feeling well, so looks so happy and so freaking cute!
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

I love the Christmas jammies! So cute!
So adorable! Especially love Kate’s hair! Certainly put a smile on my face this morning ~ Thanks!

Great job getting pictures of you with Kate! I don’t think I have any of myself with my kids on Christmas!
Just my favorite age EVER. Love the hair!

Hey! I’m a new reader just de-lurking to say hi. I’m from Minneapolis and I’m expecting my first baby this April. I went back and read an embarrassing amount of your archives and I loved them all.
Happy almost 1st birthday to Kate!
Kate is just WAY too cute! Your Christmas day pictures are great!
I’ve been reading your site for months…and have read through all your archives…and have (embarrassed to admit) never commented. Today’s the day!
I really enjoy all your Kate posts. My little one is 4 months, but I enjoy reading about your experiences and looking forward to the fun that’s coming.
Keep sharing!
Thanks everyone!
@Melissa & Megan–Thank you for your first comments! That’s so flattering that you’ve both read through all my archives. HOLY COW! I can only imagine some of things I’ve spewed over the (wine-drenched) years, lol!
Kate is just adorable — I love that hair! My son is 3 months younger than Kate (to the day) and we got him the same toy for Christmas. I can’t wait for him to stand and play with it like she is; but for now he enjoys opening and shutting the frog and zebra doors.
I’ve been reading your blog for a LONG time and I think this is my second comment ever… But, I wanted you to know I enjoy hearing about Kate, your house, all of it. Best wishes to you, G, and Kate. I hope she is feeling a lot better!
Thank you so much for such a sweet comment Krystie! I hope your son continues to enjoy his new activity cube–Kate is loving hers!
