C’s first Christmas was fantastic. She’s sitting by herself quite confidently and loves exploring her world around her.

Lawyer has always been a bit of a Scrooge about Christmas but this year was really getting excited about making the day special for C. We dressed the tree with the good glass baubles for the last year (next year we get out the baby friendly ones), wrapped every gift we could in bright coloured paper and piled them up under the tree, and watching Christmas cartoons from our childhood.

Photos are the best way to show how special the time was

We also got to hang our 3 milestone ornaments I bought a few years ago. A church for when we get married (even though there was no church in sight for our special day), a house for the house that we own, and a rocking horse for the baby that now fills our house with love and laughter.
