Merry Christmas!!

Rebecca celebrated her first family Christmas on Wed. She was more interested in eating the wrapping paper than taking it off the present, but it was still fun. She got some fun toys from Mommy and Daddy.

On Thursday we celebrated with the Van Heukelums, Mary's extended family. Rebecca got a beautiful necklace with her birthstone from Great Grandpa and Great Grandma. I'm sure she'll love wearing it when she's a little older. She enjoyed seeing everybody. Rebecca likes to watch and take it all in.
On Friday we traveled to Grand Blanc for the Holleboom party. It was great to see everyone. All of the grandkids were excited for their presents and to see each other. Rebecca did really well with the traveling and skipping naps. She got lots of fun toys. She particularly likes her keys from Uncle Dan :) Rebecca also got a beautiful wooden chair from Grandma and Grandpa. She'll be able to use that for many years. It was sad to say goodbye, the day always goes by so quickly. Hopefully we'll see everyone again soon.


We'll be celebrating with the Voogts next Tuesday. We're looking forward to seeing them. Grandpa and Grandma Voogt will be here for a few days, so Rebecca will have lots of time to show off for them :)


After the last party we're looking forward to a few quiet days together as a family. We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and wish you many blessings in the new year.

Rebecca also tried Cheerios and banana bread for the first time this week. She's slowly getting the hang of chewing. It'll be fun to have her eat more and more of what we're eating. So far she likes everything she's tried :)
