Highlights:
--visiting Santa was obviously not so much a highlight for Leah as she won't even remember it, but it sure was fun for mom & dad! (ha, ha)
--finishing two graduate classes freed up a lot of my time and made decorating and preparing for Christmas a lot more fun. A huge load off me, especially with Jason being put on second shift right now...
--two month old Leah visited her doctor to learn that she is up to 10 pounds, 15 ounces in weight and 22 1/2 inches long...both right in the 50th percentile! The doctor commented at what a beautiful baby she is--and of course, we couldn't disagree. :) She did also get three little shots to which she screamed about and I will admit I got a little teary eyed, but after a few sucks on the pacifier, she was okay and smiling at me again. What a little trooper!
--Leah also had the opportunity to play her first role in her church's Christmas program. Since she is still working on her singing voice, she was given the role of baby Jesus in which her direction was to lay sweetly in the arms of Mary and not cry! :) She did brilliantly.
With many more activities to enjoy this season, we look forward to the celebration of Christ's birth!

Congrats on finishing your grad classes! I am impressed you were able to juggle that with a newborn!
Wish we could see you guys this holiday season...one of these years. Leah is so adorable. What a beautiful daughter.
BTW - Derek was "Baby Jesus" his first Christmas too. I love the pictures of him laying in the manger. Back in the 80's my brother was a big 9 month old Baby Jesus in the manger. :)
