Christmas morning

Our first Christmas with Charlotte was just as sweet as we expected....more so, actually. Charlotte didn't really know what all the fuss was about leading up to Christmas, but she certainly seemed to realize that Christmas Day was special. She woke up to several surprises under the tree. The cutest thing was her opening her gifts. She would squeal with excitement at each gift and then lean down to bury her face in it and hug it (see picture below!). It was really darling! Of course she was very spoiled with gifts from all her aunts, uncles and Grandma Babs, who were all there to share her first Christmas with us.

Waking up to see that Santa indeed had come.

Fun with tissue paper!Hugging her gifts.

Exploring her new Learning Home toy from Mom & Dad. She loves it!

A special Christmas book from who else but......AUNT KELLEY!
