December was a total blur of baby snuggles, middle-of-the-night feedings, lots of coffee, and endless amounts of laundry! I can't believe Henry is already a month old. Each day brought new challenges, but there's nothing better than looking at his adorable face every minute I can! Tom was able to take this whole month off from work, so we've done a lot of bonding as a family!
We celebrated Henry's first Christmas and he had several very busy days of visiting with family. We were so happy when my brother and his family made their way from Oklahoma for a post-Christmas visit. We haven't seen them in person since before COVID, so it was really special that they were able to come and meet Henry. Our nephews are getting so big and it was nice to catch up with my brother and his wife.
