Callie's 1st Christmas

We had a great 1st Christmas with Callie! Here are a few photos from this Christmas... there are still more to come because we are headed to Mimi and Poppy's house tomorrow! We had so much fun watching Callie experience her first Christmas. Our favorite gift was getting to experience Christmas with a child! Don't get me wrong... we are so thankful for all of your gifts and cards! It was just amazing to see her little face taking it all in. She loved all of her new toys but seemed to be more captivated by the wrapping paper, tissue, and bows. Most of my day was making sure she didn't eat any of those! Our Christmas started early. We celebrated Paw Paw's 65th birthday last week and also celebrated Christmas with Aunt Kim and cousin Cheney. We celebrated our family Christmas on Christmas eve. Santa sure did spoil Miss Callie! It was so fun! We woke up Christmas morning and headed to Grandma and Grandpa's first (Mike's parents). We enjoyed yummy pancakes for breakfast and spent some fun family time with G & G and Uncle Matt, Aunt Mac, and Uncle Nathan. We are so excited that Callie will have her first cousin on the Matwijecs side in May! Yay for Uncle Matt and Aunt Mac! I will have to get some more family photos from Grandma and Grandpa to post. Next stop on Christmas was Nana and Paw Paw's. We enjoyed a yummy lunch and a play time with the cousins (Madeline, Abigail, Jack, and Will), Aunt Ang, Uncle Jay, Aunt Julie, Mema, Nana, and Paw Paw! We also got to see Aunt Joyce and Uncle Gerald (Mema's sister and brother). We missed Aunt Pam and Uncle Johnnie but will go visit them soon! Proud of my Aunt for being so strong! She is more than halfway through her chemo treatments! Callie and Will were so funny playing by the Christmas tree. I can't wait till they can walk and talk. I am sure Miss Priss will run the show! Sweet Will... he is such a cuddlebug! Callie is so lucky to be near family. I am so grateful for that. We are off to Somerville tomorrow! Enjoy our photos!
