Raising Young Ones: December 2012

One month old

Our little "Rose" turned a month old and hit
her due date on December 9th!!!!

I must have been too busy baby holding, because I didn't take any pictures from our two family celebrations (with Neil's family and my family), but I'm SO glad I remembered and USED my camera when visiting my Grandma at the nursing home for Thanksgiving. I took the three girls and we enjoyed a lovely Thanksgiving feast, along with some great-grandma time, Grandma/Grandpa time, and cousin time!!

Here are some pictures of our visit....

What a blessed Thanksgiving!!!!

Festival of Trees - 2012

Neil took some time off to enjoy our babymoon with our little "Rose", and his time off landed on our annual trip to the Festival of Trees. Since I was only a week and a half out of a c-section, I stayed home with my sweet baby girl, but Neil still attended with the six big kids and his mom went along as well to help out.

Here are some pictures of the lovely time they had....
