Wow! I can't believe it's December 26th already! Doesn't seem possible. Seems like we just celebrated our first Christmas with Brielle the other day.

We decided it would be best if we didn't travel this year for Christmas. It was a little bittersweet. We missed being home with our families but at the same time, it was nice not being in the car for hours upon hours traveling from here to there.

We had a nice time celebrating with our little family. Brielle went to church with us which is very rare. We still have a nurse, Jane, that comes twice a week on Sundays and Wednesdays. We are so blessed to have Miss Jane in our lives. She became part of our lives back in March. She is definitely one of Brielle's favorite people! It's so nice and comforting to know that even though our families are so far away, we still have someone to give Brielle the special care she needs when we're not there.

Brielle has been "talking" like crazy lately. She babbles a lot now and tries to mimic a lot of what we do...especially laughing.  It's is so funny! She also tries to say, "elmo, love you, hohoho, and ball". Sometimes they're pretty clear, other times...not so much! :-)

 Our dining room all decorated for Christmas!

Here's some new pics of Brielle
