Jeffrey had a wonderful first Christmas! We went to Lolly's house on Christmas Eve. She was the liturgist at her church this month, so we got to see her perform. Gram got to feed Jeffrey from the bottle for the first time at church, since we are just about finished breast feeding. Lolly and Gram gave fun Christmas Eve gifts to everyone, as tradition goes. Luke, Renee, Garrett and London couldn't come because Garrett had the flu, so we were sad about not seeing the babies together. On Christmas morning, Santa had come and we opened presents until noon!!! We had a great visit there and spent Christmas night as well.
On the 27th, after quick laundry and repack, we drove up to Dallas for my side of the family's usual after Christmas gatherings. Party at Aunt SuEllen's house one night, stayed with John and Katie. The next night, party at Grammi's and we stayed there with her. Jeffrey was such a trooper. No crying in the car on the 6 1/2 trip up (horrible traffic,) or on the way back. He napped well and was very happy. He's a happy, happy baby, but he does need good, quiet naps! He and Alyssa got to play on their first Christmas. I took tons of pictures while Cara jumped up and down sweating, trying to make them smile. It was a great Christmas! We are very fortunate.
