We had such a wonderful Christmas this year!  
Here are some of our pictures from the week of Christmas...

I love when our house is decorated for Christmas!

Our dining room ledge was filled with pictures of families we love!

Christmas dinner date to Village Tavern.  :)
Thanks Grandaddy Rick for babysitting!

Aaron was home for almost 2 weeks which was fun!

Christmas Eve Service at Westover

Trying to sneak & open his gifts before Christmas!
He must be a snoop like his Mimi!  ;)

Bright & early Christmas morning!

Opening gifts at our house.

Then Christmas at the Riddle Grandparent's house
after Davis's morning nap.  :)

Lots of fun toys from Nana & Pops!

Then visiting the O'Hare grandparents after
Davis's afternoon nap.  So thankful for family close by!

Then Micah & Virginia got to town on December 26!

On December 27, we celebrated Christmas with the O'Hares!

Virginia's first Christmas as an O'Hare!  ;)

On December 28, we got to see Caroline!

A Look Back at December...

December was such a fun {and busy} month for the Riddle family!  We had a great 1st Christmas as a family of 3 and enjoyed time with our families.  Here are some of the highlights from this month... 

I got to make Christmas cookies!

We got to see mommy & daddy's friends from when they were kids...

...and I got to see Caroline & Kinsley!

My friend Mason came over to play with me!
Oh, and I learned how to sit up all by myself!

And I LOVE to "walk" across the carpet...
with some help.

I went to visit my mom's old school & her friends.  

I loved looking at the lights on the Christmas tree!

My daddy was home for almost 2 weeks & got to play with me!!

I went to the Christmas Eve service with daddy & mommy.

I woke up at 7:20 on Christmas morning...

And I got to open gifts with mommy & daddy!

Then after my nap, I went over to Nana & Pops house!

I got more fun presents!

I celebrated Christmas at Grandaddy Rick & Mimi's on December 27.

So. many. toys.  Lots of people love me!

I loved my 1st Christmas!

Uncle Micah & Aunt Virginia were in town to play!

Uncle Isaac proposed to Caroline on December 29!

...so now the O'Hare family is growing!
Stacy & Aaron, we MISSED you!

I got to try my first big boy food!  Mmm, sweet potatoes!

I got most of it on my face, not in my tummy!

And I celebrated my half birthday!
