Alaina's First Christmas!

Opening presents and eating wrapping paper...
Alaina's first Christmas was so much fun! We spent Christmas Eve at my parents house with my brother, sister, and brother-in-law. We had a big dinner and then opened presents. Alaina did not get too excited about opening presents, she's still too young. She got more excited about crinkling the wrapping paper with her hands and trying to eat the shiny paper. I'm sure she will understand more about Christmas next year. On Christmas Day, we spent the morning at our house. Alaina had a few more presents to open from Grandma and Grandpa Bruck. We enjoyed our Christmas morning together as a family. Even Zoe hung out with us as we unwrapped the last few presents and went through gifts from Christmas Eve. Alaina had fun following Zoe around the living room as Nate and I watched a movie. It was a laid back morning, but lots of fun- just the three of us. I imagine that Christmas morning will become a lot more exciting as Alaina gets older and is anxious to see what Santa brings. But for now, eating wrapping paper and chasing Zoe was fun too.

Looks like everyone had a great Christmas! I love Alaina's expressions in the photos. That girl really knows how to take a good picture! :)
