We had a GREAT first Christmas with Brinnley! We feel so lucky that we have parents that live so close by so we were able to spend this special holiday with both of them.
We started our first family Christmas by going to church for Christmas Eve Mass. We went to the earlier "children's mass" and were amazed at how well Brinnley did! She lasted right up to Communion when she decided she needed a snack. I think she liked all the singing and people watching. Then we headed to Grandma and Grandpa's house for our tradional Italian dinner. Mmm!
Here shs is after church with Grandpa and Grandma.

Love the Christmas PJ's...
First Christmas present! As with every year's tradition, we got to open one up on Christmas eve.
"Watching" National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation with Daddy.
Christmas morning back at our house in front of the tree.
Then we headed back to Grandma and Grandpa's for some more presents. Brinnley actually loved pulling off the paper and trying to stick it in her mouth.
All smiles about her new puppy!
And she LOVED her new coat. Who wouldn't when you look that cute?!?
Relaxing after opening presents and gazing at Grandpa. She loves to snuggle with him!
Next we went to my moms for breakfast and more presents!
Apparently we don't like to nap on holidays, but Brinnley did love snuggling with Auntie Camille.
Spencer entertaining "Brimely." (As he calls her.)
Me and Bailey. She was THRILLED to have revieved a Nintendo DS for Christmas and we were all amazed at how she figured out how to do it all herself! She also set up a salon and we all got our nails and hair done. :) She's at such a fun age!
Loved the mantle with all the stockings. Not sure what we'll do when more babies come!

Brinn's new stocking
Hanging out with Uncle Drew.
All the craziness...
We were a bit surprised to see a Victoria's Secret box when opening a present for Brinnley. (It had a cute poncho in it that my mom got Brinnley while in San Antonio.)
Colin's parents came over to my mom's for dinner and we had a nice, relaxing end to the crazy day. Here are my mom and Grandma.
Brinn fell asleep during dinner and I put her in her car seat while we ate. This was her face when she woke up. I love the little sly look on her face!
Finally we headed home and Brinnley opened up her stocking to see what Santa left her.
And a present from Mommy and Daddy.
