41 Weeks: Christmas Time is Here

Dear Asher,

Your first Christmas has come and gone! It felt like a dream, it came and went so quickly! We loved every minute of it. You seemed to love every minute of it as well. We had Christmas Eve at our house and had nearly 40 family and friends over. You stayed up until 8:30pm and then went to bed and managed to sleep through all of the noise. We were very impressed. Santa even came to visit- you weren't interested in sitting on his lap by yourself. I can't blame you, he was wearing strange glasses and looked suspiciously like your uncle Brad. On Christmas Day we went to Grandma Mary and Grandpa Don's for brunch and then to Grandma Jane and Grandpa Jerry's for dinner. It was a wonderful Christmas and we will never forget the joy of having you as our best Christmas gift this year!

The other exciting event that happened just before Christmas was the birth of your Godparents Peter and Maria's baby. Santiago was born on December 18th. He is much awaited and prayed for. We are so excited he is here and I know you will be a big friend to him, Asher!
