December 25, 2009 ~ Our First Christmas

We spent our first Christmas as a family quietly "cacooned" at home. We started the day with a decadent waffle breakfast and we swear food just tastes better when you are exhausted!  Michael played some guitar for Miles and then we took a much needed loooong nap as the uncharacteristically rainy weather pounded on the roof. Our sweet baby slept in the living room in his new cradle from Yia Yia Linda as we ate breakfast.  He was swaddled in a kikoi (cotton wrap) we got with Vanessa in South Africa. Yia Yia Liz was able to sneak up to share some awake time with her great grandson Miles.
