At a little over a month and a half we celebrated Leila's first Christmas. If you missed it or haven't seen pictures, its okay. We didn't go all out like most parents do for their first child's first Christmas. Since she is so young, and we knew she would more than likely sleep through most of (which she did), we decided beforehand that we would wait until Christmas 2011 to do it BIG as they say. She did have gifts and she was able to stay awake long enough to at least see us open them for her, but there was no excitement from her and we can't wait to see her next year as rips into the many presents there is sure to be for her under the tree.
Shortly after the Christmas festivities, we rang in the new year for the first time as a family. However it was a stretch to get there. Leila wore her new year's onesie and popped fireworks with her cousin Aubrey. I'm not sure what was happening at exactly midnight, but when I realized that it was midnight, I had just gotten back in the bedroom with a drink. I looked at the time and realized that I was a few seconds late. I kissed my two beautiful girls, who were feeding at the time, told them happy new year and drifted off to sleep.
