Maggie's First Christmas (Better Late Than Never)!



My precious Maggie had her first Christmas at the ripe age of 5 1/2 months! Due to other family obligations we didn't actually celebrate Christmas until the 26th when everyone could be together. So on Christmas Day, Grandpop, Mimi, Gigi, Maggie and I had a quiet day around the ol' homestead. We had a delicious breakfast and a wonderful pot of vegetable soup later in the afternoon. After lunch, we all took Granny home then headed to the airport to pick up Aunt Amy and Uncle Mike. The plan was to head to Waffle House for a late dinner but when we got to the WoHo it was packed (guess we weren't the only ones with that idea) and people were smoking (yuck)! So we headed home for more delicious vegetable soup. The next day Aunt Toot Toot (Katie) and Uncle Andrew came over so our entire family could be together for Christmas. We had a delicious meal and a beautiful tablescape (Sandra Lee would be proud!). We also decided that Maggie's first feeding of "real" food should be made into an event, so while everyone was around the table Maggie had her first bite of baby cereal. She made the funniest faces but she eventually got the hang of it!
Are all of these for me???
