Christmas

Well, this Christmas wasn't without a few "bad" things,(Kenneth and I were sicke) but it was a wonderful one. And I know it wasn't technically Ashleigh's first Christmas, but it was the first one where she could participate!

She doesn't really "get" Santa yet, but she loved what he left her under the tree!

It might not look like alot, but it was hard to find stuff she didn't already have:


She really seemed to like everything!





Then it was off to see my parents, sister and future brother-in-law, where she got even MORE toys and clothes. (Of course, Kenneth and I werent' left out either!





OH!!! Can't forget the Taylor family Christmas gathering. Below is an overall shot of the mass chaos after the gifts were exchanged. Also is a pic of Ashleigh and her cousin Elana with Mamaw & Grandpa Taylor. I'm so blessed to have wonderful in-laws AND wonderful parents. How does a girl get so lucky?



My family was so blessed with gifts and love from family members and friends. I was left feeling a little bad, because we couldn't give nearly what we'd like to everyone else. But that's what $1,000's in baby doctor bills will do to ya! Not to mention the everyday expenses of said baby. But I wouldn't trade her for all the money in the world.

Glad I finally got to share some photos with you all!

Looks like you guys had a nice Christmas indeed! Sorry that you and Kenneth were sick though. :( Hope your feeling better now..

And remember that it isn't the COST of the gift that matters! What you gave to others is what you could give so be proud of that and don't worry about it! :)
