Zoey's First Christmas Eve and Christmas

Because Zoey has two families who love her very much, she has at least 3, sometimes 4 Christmases.  At one week old we celebrated Christmas Eve with Mike's family.  She spent the day snuggled in each one of Mike's relatives arms.  She was a very sleepy baby that day, but when she did wake up she was so alert.  She was such a good sport at visiting, she barley cried at all.  I secretly looked forward to her nursing sessions because I didn't get to hold her much and having to feed her gave me the excuse to steal her back :)  I think Mike's family truly fell in love with her that day.

Kayley finally held me...she was scared to hold me at first

For Christmas, we  went to church in the morning, then spent the afternoon with Grammy and Aunt Kelli and Hau.  They spoiled Zoey rotten with lots of gifts and everyone took turns holding her.   It was a lot less stressful with less people, and I even got to take some pictures with my baby girl.  One of my favorite pictures ever is of me holding Zoey with her in her beautiful Christmas dress and hat.
