Baby's first Christmas! Lilah's first Christmas was spent at my hometown in Iowa. Traveling for 6 plus hours in a car with a 3-week old was interesting, but we made it work by stopping several times along the way. And she was a trooper on her first road trip and out-of-town stay. Grandma Joy and Grandpa Ivan spoiled her and she enjoyed it thoroughly. My brother and his family and my grandparents also got to meet Lilah, which was wonderful. A few days later we celebrated Christmas with her Grandma Barb and Grandpa Jim and Jeff's family. Merry Christmas baby girl!

happy holidays!
We're celebrating Christmas in Iowa with my family so we did our family and friends Christmas on Saturday. Jeff and I opened gifts while Lilah slept. She has since enjoyed the books that her dad got her for Christmas though.
That night, we had a Feliz Navidad with our friends and enjoyed tacos. It was so great to see all our friends and we had so much fun enjoying good food, conversation and exchanging gifts.

lilah has arrived!
It took a lot longer for her to arrive than I anticipated (had contractions/in labor for about 50 hours) but baby girl Watts is finally here! Lilah Joy was born at 4:37 a.m. on Tuesday, December 2. She weighed 6 pounds, 14 ounces and was 21 inches long. She is perfect, amazing and all things wonderful. Jeff and I are so happy and excited and were blessed to be surrounded by family and friends.
