Holidays in Phoenix

We celebrated Eden’s first Christmas in Phoenix.  Here are some of my favorite pictures.  Eden had a great time playing with and being spoiled by her cousins, Aunts, Uncles and Grandparents.  I’m not sure that we’re going to be able to go home to a quiet house again.
I brought four different Christmas outfits to Arizona for Eden.  I laugh every time I see her in the red outfit complete with 80′s aerobic headband.  My favorite is the Santa outfit that belonged to Carter when he was a newborn.

Ava and Eden

One of the cutest things over Christmas was watching Eden interact with Cousin Ava.  Ava adores Eden and spent a lot of time talking to her, playing with her, and making sure that Eden was okay.  Eden immediately responded to Ava and happily gazed at her every time Ava came into view.  It was very cute to watch.  I have a feeling that Ava is going to be watching over Eden for many years to come.

Free Spirit

Eden is free spirit. She does not like to be restricted by clothing, car seats, or baby carriers. Mommy must have been crazy when she let Eden roam “free” on her white sheets on her bed. Fortunately, Eden did not have any accidents.

Smiling

Excuse the annoying baby talk — gotta do what you gotta do to get them to smile.
