1st Christmas

Boy was Santa good to Hannah. We had a wonderful Christmas full of family, friends, good food, laughter, memories and lots of gifts. Hannah was a bit overwhelmed on both Christmas Eve and Christmas day by all the excitement, people, and toys galore. Thank you so much to everyone who helped make Hannah's first Christmas fun and special for her. We opened our gifts to each other as our little fam of three on the 23rd. On Christmas Eve we spent the evening with the Collins/Fuller clan. I felt so blessed this year that so many family members were able to get together. It was especially meaningful to have Uncle Tyler there because he leaves for London in a few days and we are not sure when we will see him next. Hannah was completely spoiled and enjoyed eating Honey Baked Ham under the Christmas tree. Tim and I were surprised with Disneyland passes so we are looking forward to taking Hannah there on her Birthday.

We drove through the night and just beat Santa to Bishop for Tatum Christmas. Once again Hannah had more gifts than she knew what to do with. Her cousins Zane and Weston on the other hand got down to business and loved to play with every toy as soon as it was unwrapped. All the kids wore matching pajamas and I absolutely love seeing the three of them interact. Zane loves to show Hannah how to work her toys and Weston would pretty much hug and kiss Hannah all day long if we let him. Also in Bishop we enjoyed many family game nights, snow day, and the duck park. We thought her teeth might break through during our stay because they are so close to popping through you can see them. She is also sooooooo close to walking. She walks while barely holding on to one finger and can stand by herself, but gets scared.

Currently Hannah calls everything and everyone "dada," so don't ask her what she got. I will translate and list a few of the million gifts she received: doll house, toy gumball machine, tea set, play picnic basket, singing Winnie the Pooh, Singing Minnie Mouse, books, clothes, pajamas, shopping cart and a talking zoo with lots of animals from Santa. I can't believe her birthday is in one week. She is such a blessed little girl and loves EVERYTHING she was given. THANK YOU!!!!

Snow Trip: Hannah's cute snow suit was one of her gifts


She did not like sledding and cried whenever she saw Tim go down the hill. Weston is definitely the thrill seeker of the group.
