Nicole's first Christmas

So maybe I'm 5 months late in posting this...but I wanted to blog about Nicole's first Christmas, and our second as a Baker family!

 

Nicole's Aunt Victoria got her the cutest Christmas dress, so I had to take some pictures of her in it. It's also what she wore to her first visit with Santa!

This was our tree for the season. The star is a little sad, I could never quite Gerry-rig it so that it would stand up straight!

Nicole's first ornament! I didn't realize until after that the ornament said something about hands, and I was supposed to put a handprint on there, but who can get a 2 month old to open their hand long enough to get a decent handprint? I settled for her foot!

...and Devan getting some Paul snuggles! This was at the Arnesen family Christmas get together.

Victoria, Nicole and I.

The grandkids acted out the nativity scene, and Nicole had a key role in it this year! Also, Nicole is eyeing her first Christmas gift very intently!

We also volunteered to be Mary and Joseph for the live Nativity at the annual Festival of Nativities that our church puts on.

sorry this is sideways, but this is Nicole's first Santa picture!

And this is at our ward Christmas party!

 

 

It was a wonderful season for us. We sure enjoyed celebrating as a family of three!
