Merry Christmas

This year we enjoyed our first Christmas in our new house. Grandma was here at the beginning of December and helped us get into the Christmas spirit by baking cookies with the boys.

 

In our new house, we have a nice big living room to put up our tree in. It is nice to be able to decorate it all the way around.

Aunt Emily spent Christmas Eve with us and spent the night so she could be with us Christmas Morning. We had a great time opening presents. Bennet let Evan be the designated present opener, which suited him as he only had eyes for the candy Santa left in his stocking.

Daddy made a delicious traditional Kraczek christmas breakfast. Later we headed up to Maryland to have dinner with our Kraczek cousins. It was a very merry Christmas.

Visit from Grandma

Grandma Heather came out to help after James was born. Unlike Evan and Bennet, James decided to come early not late. Instead of having to go home right after the baby came home from the hospital, Grandma was able to spend time with the new baby the whole time she was here. James and Grandma became fast friends. James' first smile was for Grandma after about a week of her being here.
