Christmas Afternoon

MM and Pops stopped by the house for a few hours to have Christmas with Claire.

Showing MM how I can stand up all by myself now!

MM and Pops like seeing all the pictures of me in their new photo album.

I have a little growing to do before I can wear my new boots and rain coat, but they sure are cute on me!

I like it when Mommy tickles my face with her long hair!

 

I also got to Skype with Aunt Dana, Uncle Andrew, Bamma, and Dabbo.  I sure did have a great first Christmas!

By the end of the day, she was pretty good at pulling off the wrapping paper!

Christmas Eve

Matt and Claire had lunch with the Cammon family.  Claire got to meet their newest addition, Christian, who is a few weeks younger than she is.

 

Then Claire and Matt came to the Christmas Eve service at church.  I helped out with the kids' choir and played the piano.

Claire got a special hug from our Pastor's wife, Pattie.

 

Then we took some pictures at home!

She's beginning to like sitting in our laps for a few minutes to look at a book!
