Baby and Christmas

Well we've been pretty busy for the last month so I haven't had a lot of time to blog. I am finally settling into a routine now that things are getting back to normal. Adam has been off of work since the baby was born and he just went back this week so now I am on my own! Our baby girl was born on Dec. 5th at 4:11 p.m. She weighed 7lbs 7oz and was 20in. long. We named her Laici (not one of the names we were considering when we got to the hospital by the way) She is such a sweet baby. She doesn't really make a lot of noise and Kyla loves her to death. She is such a good big sister. She wants to hold her and give her her binki. When Laici cries Kyla will run up to her and say "Oh Laic, what's wrong?" and kinda pat her belly a little. It's so cute!!

We took Kyla up to see Santa in town a couple of days before Christmas because she had been saying that she wanted to ask him to bring her a bicycle. So we got up there and we were the first in line and she was so excited, but the second that the door opened and she saw Santa she wanted nothing to do with him. She would not let go of me and I had to actually pick her up and take her into his little house. She just cried and wouldn't talk to him but I guess for a two year old he's a pretty scary guy. Then she told everyone that she didn't like Santa very much because he scared her. She's still talking about that and it cracks me up every time she tells me that story.

Then we had Christmas which was fun this year except Adam got sick with a horrible flu bug on Christmas Eve so I packed up the girls and we went to the Pixtons for our usual Christmas Eve party and left Adam to try and get some sleep and have some peace and quiet. We missed him very very much but Ky had a good time playing with all her cousins. Thankfully he was feeling better by Christmas morning so that we could open all our presents with him. We all got bikes from Santa and Ky was pretty excited. She has been riding hers around the house ever since. Then we went to the Graves for our Christmas party and gift exchange and had a good time opening presents and visiting. Ky loves it when she gets to play with her cousins and Laici got a lot of TLC from her aunts and uncles.
