Sadie's First Christmas

We had a wonderful first Christmas with Sadie.  Several times we went out looking at Christmas lights to get Sadie into the holiday spirit.  It was really fun to watch her become more and more interested each time.  Even now (it's January now...) one of our neighbors still has their lights up and she just loves to look at them.  I'm excited to make light looking into one of our family traditions for the holidays as Sadie gets older.

On Christmas Eve we had our own tiny family Christmas at home.  Sadie opened a few presents from mom and dad.  Adam and I are truly adults as we got each other insulation for our house for our gift to each other.  (Not exciting, but boy is our house the right temperature now!)  

We got to spend the day with both the Petersen and Rhine families and it was really nice.  Christmas was a perfectly sunny, 75 degree day so we even spent some time outside.

We are looking forward to next year when Sadie understands a little more of what the holidays are about.




Reading new books with Dad.

New toys!


So many presents!




Sadie wasn't great at opening presents...but she did do some ripping of the paper and did all she could to get the paper into her mouth.  Somehow we captured every step on camera.  Oh wait, it's because it was her first Christmas and so we took as many photos as the camera would take...




Yum....
