Almost Christmas!

Oh joy! We are so looking forward to our first Christmas day with our baby girl!  Taking advantage of the time spent indoors due to weather, we have been doing a lot of fun holiday related activities, following family traditions while incorporating new ones this year. Christmas is such a special time and we are just so freakin’ happy that our girl is home with us to celebrate and fully enjoy!!!

A year ago we only dreamed of what would Christmas be like with a little girl in our home, we imagine all the presents she was going to get and how we would decorate our home  … this year we snuggle together, enjoying hot chocolate while our daughter sing, dance and play with her toys... We watch her and laugh, we are so blessed! This year we are not as concerned with decorations and gifts as much as we thought we would, our main focus is trying to enjoy every minute with our girl making beautiful memories.

Here are some of the things we have been doing this month:

 We introduced our girl to "Elfie" our very own elf on shelf

                                   Hope you have a Merry Christmas!!! xoxo
