Mr. Hunt and I find ourselves torn today. This is the first Christmas that we are by ourselves, but our little baby Jane is making this day extra special for us. I'm so glad she decided to arrive before Christmas because we would definitely be missing our family that much more if not. Good news is that my mom, dad, and Davis are on their way to visit right now. We cant wait for them to meet Jane.
I wanted to be able to remember this day since its Jane's first Christmas so we did a little impromptu photo shoot. Its hard to find time for these since she eats every 3 hours and sleeps in between. She is only awake for a short time right after she eats.
Look at these lips!!
I cannot get over every time she folds her hands like this.
Can you handle the cuteness? I sure cant.
And of course we cannot forget our big boy River's birthday today. Today he turns 4 years old. I cant believe its already been 4 years with him. Seems like yesterday he was our little puppy. Ill do a whole 'nother post about how the dogs have adjusted to Jane, but he has been an amazing big brother. He has had to deal with two little girls coming into the family after him....poor guy. He enjoyed a rawhide bone for his birthday. Of course Hannah had one too. Mr. Hunt also got him a duck decoy so he can start to learn to duck hunt. Its going good so far and he loves the duck toy.
We opened up a few gifts that we received in the mail from our family. We feel so blessed. Mr. Hunt and I decided not to get each other anything this year since we have spent a large amount of money on sweet Jane. For once Mr. Hunt followed the rules. Probably because he didn't have any time to go get anything for me last minute since we've been at home with the baby.
After only a few gifts, we had to take a break to feed the girl. Apparently she didn't have enough the first time I fed her before the gifts.
How cute are these little snowmen ornaments.?
Mr. Hunt loves Duck Dynasty. His parents got him this shirt.
Its been a great Christmas so far. Definitely alot different than any Christmas we've ever had. Again, we are missing our families so much, but we are trying to just soak in our little nugget all day and just look forward to when we see our families next.
We made sure to read the Christmas story in the bible last night. The real reason for Christmas is the birth of our king. We are making family traditions here at the Hunt household this year since we have Jane now. We want to have some fun traditions for each holiday. Reading the Christmas story is definitely one of them. We want to make sure she remembers that Its not only Christmas and her big brother's birthday, but its also Jesus's birthday and that's the MOST important.
Ill be back with Jane's birth story either tonight or tomorrow.
Love,
Jennifer
