Christmas!

Jordyn's fourth month brought every child dream... Christmas. Although she is still a bit young to understand the concept of Santa Clause, she relished in all the gifts she recieved! It was our first year together as a family which really made it special! Jake and I even got our first "mommy" and daddy" stockings!















We spent Christmas Eve at Grandma Loni's house. We feasted on a roast and opened gifts with Jordyn's older cousins Kota and Caeden. Jake dressed up as Santa and brought in a bag full of goodies for all the kids.


On Chirstmas day, I cooked a holiday feast. Oma, Opa, and Aunt Kasey once again headed on down from the mountains to celebrate. (Next year, we will go over the river and through the woods to Oma's house!) The day was filled with gifts, games and laughter. Jordyn had many gifts to open from relatives near and far. She even got dressed up for the occasion! She recieved a tummy time toy that she liked...













But decided she liked her Aunt Kasey's Elmo doll more...














December also brought new adventures for Jordyn. She had her first taste of peas....(I think she likes them!)


She learned how to roll over, and even learned to play with her feet. Daddy got to see her roll over first...















She spent some time in her 'baby einstein chair'












but at times it bored her....














And Jake and I found new places to hide baby J while we visited Oma and Opa... who knew ottamans could double as cribs?
All in all it was a great month! We hope everyone else had a fantastic holiday season!
