Pierson's First Christmas!

I absolutely LOVE Christmas and all the joys that the holiday season brings and this year it was taken to a whole new level having Pierson here! We spent the first part of the week in Longview spending time with my family and then came back to Waco on Christmas Eve. Unfortunately she caught a pretty bad cold right before Christmas while we were in Longview which then led to an ear infection and bronchitis. Poor little thing was just not feeling too well for a few weeks, but she didnt seem to let that get her down. She loved all her new toys (mommy liked them even more because it gave us some new things to do!) and took a special interest in the bows =) We celebrated our first Christmas as a family of 3 at our own house and had the entire week to relax (recover from being sick) and enjoy our time together as a family. Spenco is closed for the holidays so Ryan was able to spend more time at home which Pierson and I loved! Taking care of a sick little baby is hard work and just breaks your heart when they are not feeling well and you can't do anything to make them feel better. Pierson has been just a sassy as ever though, if not even a little more, now that she knows how much attention she can get from mom and dad. Although our first Christmas with Pierson was not what we expected with us all being sick, we were very blessed to have the opportunity to be at our own house with one another, rest and enjoy God's many blessings!
