A few years ago, we decided to jump on the every other year plan for Christmas celebrations. At first, I wasn’t a fan but now I’ve come to enjoy the fact that we get to focus on the family we’re with. This was our year in Winston with the Pierces for Christmas but we were able to go to Chapel Hill to spend a few days with Ariana’s cousins.
While the big kids were opening presents, my girl was hanging out like this.
While we were there, we also managed to squeeze in a Carolina basketball game. I had planned to feed her a bottle during the game but she slept right through. For the final 16 minutes of play, I was pulling on her feet and moving her arms… doing anything possible to wake her up so she could eat. It seems that she loves to sleep when it’s noisy and the second it’s quiet, those blue eyes open up.
After hanging out in Chapel Hill for the first part of our Christmas celebrations, we came home for just long enough to do laundry and pack up again. Winston was full of family and food.
On Christmas eve, we decided that we would sleep late the following morning. I think this was a wise decision considering that won’t even be an option in the near future.
I can’t wait to see this Little Love tear into Christmas presents over the next few years.
Also, I’m starting a little mini-series better late than never to hit all the moments I haven’t blogged about. I started with the 2015 recap… did you catch it? So much fun to look back on such a life-changing year.
