Babys First Christmas

So, this year was different than last year due to the fact that it was not just the two of us. We had Reece and so our priorities for gifts seemed to shift. Most of what we bought was for Reece but for some reason she seems to be more mesmerized by the lights on the tree rather than the Texas Tech Pillow Pet that Santa dropped off for her. All in all, we had a very blessed Christmas. The best blessing we had was Reece. She is continuing to grow into the young girl that God desires het to be. Of course Mommy gets sad when I start talking about her getting bigger. Mommy wants her to stay a baby, but I want her to grow for selfish reasons. I want a full nights sleep on a consistent basis....
Anyway, Christmas was great. A new change for us and we continue to look toward the future.

Santa I love you!

So we took little Reecie Pie to go meet Santa. We figured it might be a welcomed treat for her since she has been cooped up in the house for a week with RSV. Reece has not been able to leave the house since right after her new little cousin Scarlett Grace came into the world on 12-8-11. I know that Scarlett, cousin Abigail and Reece are going to be thick as thieves! I can't wait to see how much trouble they try to give Ella Faith.


As you can see Reece had a great first impression of Santa Clause! She loves his fluffy belly and super soft beard. I think he liked her quite a bit too! God definantly answered our prayer for Reece. While I was pregnant we prayed that Reece would bring Joy to all people that know her or come in contact with her... And she does! And especially to her mommy and daddy!

Celebration Saturday

Today was a fun filled day of celebrating! First Ryan and I went to the Houston Ballet to see The Nutcracker. It was the first time for us both to see it. Ryan had given me the tickets for our anniversary. It was so much fun to get dressed up and go out on a date!

Then tonight we went as a family to Reece's very first Christmas party. As you can see the theme was "Tacky Christmas!" We had a great time at the party and loved spending time with the people of Genesis Church!!!
