It is hard to believe Christmas has already come and gone and a new year has greeted us. Mommy, daddy, and I have all been very busy through the holidays. Daddy is working and mommy is now a full time student again. School has just begun, so hopefully it won't take us too long to establish a new routine. The good news is on Tuesdays and Thursdays while my mommy is at school I get to hang out with my Nina. And during mommy's night classes, I get special time with daddy. Mommy hates to leave me at all, but she is happy I have so many other people who love me as much as she does helping us out.
My first Christmas was WONDERFUL! I can't even count all the presents I received! Well, I haven't exactly learned to count yet, but not even mommy and daddy can count them all!! It was so much fun to visit many of our family members, go to church, and spend time with everybody. Right now mommy wants to spend some time with me before she has to leave for class, but I promise to update (with pictures!) later.

Here I am with my friend Christiana after church for the annual Christmas play the big kids put on
Christmas Eve with Grandma Hoffman. I call her Gigi or GG (it stands for Great Grandma)!
Me and mommy with Uncle Phil and Elijah. I am very interested in playing with Elijah, but everybody keeps telling me I have to wait until he gets bigger.

Giving mommy her present; it's a mommy necklace!
Time for daddy's present: a framed picture of us!
Finally, it's my turn!
Cool box!
What does this thing do?
Time for church. After Christmas morning Liturgy, we posed for a family photo.
My very own phone! Of course I still prefer to take everyone elses' phones.
All that unwrapping wore me out; time for a nap!
Christmas with Nina!
More presents for me! I love to sit and rock on this giraffe. I keep my feet on the floor so I can stand up and sit down all by myself!
Look at the giant picture of me! This was mommy's favorite Christmas present; it was from Nina. Now no matter how big I get, mommy can always cuddle with her baby!
