Some random Christmas pics!

We had a great Christmas. We spent time with family and ate good food. Delaney had a good time, although I think she got a little overwhelmed at times. We are so grateful for everything that we all received, especially Delaney. She is having a great time playing with her new toys and we really needed all her new clothes since she just keeps sprouting up. She had a little developmental spurt right before Christmas and starting crawling (not just her version of crawling that she had been doing) and now there is no stopping her. She is all over the place now. She is also pulling herself up on everything and is becoming more vocal every day. We hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!

Christmas evening at Grandma Charlene's house.

Opening a present with Dad on Christmas morning.

Helping with the Christmas baking. Well, just licking the spoon to make sure it would taste ok. And don't worry, no raw eggs in fudge.

Poor Rudolph never stood a chance. He will just have to fly without a nose.

This is Delaney's first Advent calendar. I have had one every year, so she needed to have one for her first Christmas. She had a lot of fun chewing on it. We wound up not even opening it until after Christmas because she had too much fun playing with it (and it was safer in the wrapper).

Playing under the Christmas tree. We were pretty lucky. Delaney liked the tree, but she really didn't mess with it too much. She would occasionally crawl up and touch it, but she really wasn't that interested.
