Christmas Day Is Here!
Well, Christmas has finally come and we have had an amazing day thus far. First last night was wonderful. Trey had to work 6 hrs yesterday and so Hannah and I stayed home and cleaned and got dinner all prepared. After Trey got off work we headed to church. The place was packed and our prayer is that everyone who was there on last night will come back to church each week(not just making this a once a year appearance). After church we came home and Hannah finally got to wear her reindeer pj's and she was off to bed. Trey and I enjoyed a nice huge meal: meatloaf muffins, green beans wrapped in bacon drenched in barbecue sauce, mashed potatoes, and for dessert we had Grampa Cliff's famous Oreo Cream Stuff. Mmmmm!!!!!
Hannah woke us up at 6:45 am...she must have known it was Christmas. We all showered and got dressed, and after Hannah ate breakfast we read her "Little Baby Jesus Is Here" and then opened Christmas presents. Hannah was half interested in opening the first present, daddy was in charge of getting all the toys out and ready to be played with. She had a blast while mommy opened the rest. Hannah got: lots and lots of clothes (all SO very cute), some curious George pj's, a cute jacket, a walker (the kind you walk behind), a play phone, a stacker, a 'bead thing', and music player, a walking pooh, and a turtle with shapes. Trey got: shirts, a rain coat covering, a spotlight, a haircutting kit, and a watch. Ashley got: a monogrammed makeup bag, furry slippers, jewelry, a pillow, and body spray. Our family gifts included lots of money (that was such a blessing!) and a cool GPS that Trey can't seem to put down!!!!!!!! Thank you so much to everyone! We love you all!
We know that as Hannah gets older she will be able to participate more and more in the Christmas present opening and also to better understand the true meaning of Christmas! You should have seen her when we were reading her book to her about Baby Jesus!!!! This was our 2ND Christmas as a married couple and first with Hannah, each year will bring more joy as our family grows! "Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!!!"
Here are some pics above and hopefully video, we'll put more on here in a bit!

Chilly!
It is so cold in the "Burgh"...I think when Trey left for work at 10:30am it was 4 degrees. Boo! And then with the wind, it makes it so much colder! Our weekend was wonderful, we did some last minute shopping and Trey took me on a after-birthday date to the movies. Friday night he brought me home a mini cheesecake, put a candle on it and sang Happy Birthday to me!!! Hannah now has a "big" girl car seat and she loves it! And now Trey only has to carry Hannah up and down to the car, not the whole carseat!!!! Hannah is getting so big and every morning I remind her that there are 5...4...3...days til' Christmas. She just looks at me and smiles! I took some pictures and more video of Hannah! The other baby is doing great, reminding me by her kicks everyday that she is not far from being here, and we can't wait! We're still praying about a name for her and we know that God will show us which name will be best (thank you family for your input, we know before we talk to ya'll which names your going to like and not like, we sometimes just like to be humored by all of you). We have seemingly narrowed it down to 3 names: Ruth Anne, Rachel Hadassah, Rebekah Noel-we love all 3!!!!!!!
