Merry Christmas!

12.25.2009

Sofia is 32 days old and it's her first Christmas! Though it's not very festive... although we have a tree, family is here, it's not the same as when we are home in NJ. I guess she's too little to understand anyways, so that's okay.  But i hope that next year we can go home to NJ and celebrate properly... I'm such a sucker for holidays and how to do them "right"- in the festive manner.  I guess I am also sentimental like that as well.  Maybe that's why. It definitely doesn't really seem very festive though.  I'm a bit sad about it -- being my family hasn't really been around as they're running errands/meeting mom's friends etc , but it's okay.  I'm going to dress Sofia in her little xmas fleece outfit auntie jenjen gave her and i think we'll be going to karlson's later tonight. Hopefully we'll be able to take xmas pics still. :) Most important i think, so that sofia has some memories for later.

Sofia is growing and growing. I think she's grown 2" in the past month and is probably over 9lbs.  Also you're able to move your head from side to side when sleeping on your belly! It's truly amazing how strong you are.  Your neck muscles even- are already so strong, you can hold your head up on your own.  its' such a blessing, i am so thankful that you're my daughter and in my life.

Merry merry christmas!!
love and peace in the world, right? :)
