This Christmas was very special because for the first time we got to see it through our baby's eyes. It was so fun to show her how to tear the wrapping paper off her presents and watch her play with the boxes and tissue paper (while ignoring the actual gifts). We celebrated Christmas early at our house because we knew we'd be in Cleveland for the actual event. Isabel was intrigued by the boxes and enjoyed climbing all over them while Kyle and I exchanged our gifts.
Later that day we drove up to Cleveland to share the holidays with Kyle's family. Isabel loved spending time with her cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and more. On Christmas morning, she participated in opening a gift or two, then scampered off to the stairs (her new favorite climbing apparatus). She was spoiled rotten that day, even if she didn't know it!
The only hard part about Christmas is not being able to share it with all of our family. Since they are scattered across Illinois, North Carolina, Ohio, and Texas, it's impossible to see everyone at once. Hopefully this blog makes friends and family feel a little closer!
