Merry Christmas to all!  We visited "Mamie" a week before Christmas and Riess LOVES her Christmas lights.  Riess had a wonderful Christmas this year.  Santa came to visit and she stayed up ALL night since she was so excited.  She slept late, as did mom and dad to catch up.  I think it will probably be the last Christmas that we sleep late ... EVER!  I can't wait until the real fun begins in the coming years when she can really enjoy the season.  

But today -- Christmas Day -- Riess has been asleep ALL DAY LONG.  That probably doesn't mean good things for tonight.  I return to work tomorrow, so Chris is on "daddy duty" tonight and all of next week too!  

But Chris and I agree that Riess was by far our best Christmas gift this year.  We feel so very blessed to have our beautiful baby girl this year.  And equally as blessed... my good friends Courtney and Brooke!  Riess met Paisley (Brooke's daughter) and Addison (Courtney's) in Owensboro.... Paisley and Riess spent some time together...

On Dec.15th, Addison was born and all three girls are finally here!  What a very Merry Christmas!!!!!
