Two days after Christmas, we celebrated the holiday with Uncle Jim and Aunt Jackie. Nolan was so excited that Christmas had been extended! Norah slept, but opened her eyes for this great pic! We relaxed and enjoyed Jim's cooking!
On Christmas Day, we celebrated with the Gibbons/Gallagher side of the family. By this time, Nolan could rip open a present in no time flat. Over the course of the celebrations, Nolan established the habit of unwrapping a gift and needing to play with it right away! He can be so stinkin' funny!
We have had many blessings this Christmas, but I'm going to reflect on two. Giving birth to a healthy baby girl began our Christmas blessings. New life is a treasure. Christmas morning, Nolan gave us another blessing - to see Christmas through a child's eyes. The amazement in his eyes, took our breath away.
The pic below is of Nolan with his favorite gift from Santa...
One week after Norah was born (12/10), we visited Timothy Whaley and Associates for professional pictures. To view those pictures, click on the title of this blog or the following link http://www.twaphoto.com/login_portrait.html . The "session ID" is "sandusky-ewanic-nora." No capitals and yes, Nora is spelled incorrectly.
And...if you are wondering, Nolan saw that Norah had no clothes on, so why should he??
