Catching up: Christmas Day - Happy Birthday, Jesus!

On Christmas day we got up early for the 8:15 Mass with my parents. John wore a suit that Uncle Lou and Aunt Jenna gave to him at his baby shower. The size is for a one-year-old, but it almost fits him now - so we couldn't resist! Then we came home and opened a few presents in our apartment.

Our first annual Christmas morning photo!

Oh goody- ribbons and paper!!

Then we went upstairs to join my parents and brother for some sausage souffle and presents.

And another gift from Uncle Aaron

One of his favorite gifts was the box that his new car seat came in!
Thanks Uncle Aaron - you're the best!


But the best present of all is having a wonderful daddy! "I love you Dad!"

The day after Christmas, we went to a party at my Uncle John and Aunt Karen's house. We got to see most of my family from my mom's side. All my cousins are growing up so fast! For some, this was the first time they met little Johnny! We all had a good time!

And because Epiphany isn't until tomorrow,
I am still allowed to wish you all a Merry Christmas!
