Merry Christmas

She wouldn't stop staring at him with her mouth wide open.

Our first family Christmas photo. I made Brian take a million and ended up using the first one :)

We finally took a picture with the three of us! Yes, we do still exsist. It's haqrd to turn the picture on yourself when you have such a beautiful baby girl to capture all day long.

I hope you all remember the meaning of Christmas this year and tell everyone who may not know. It's the real gift of Jesus Christ. I am reminding myself more and more every day to remember that all my gifts and blessings come from him and him alone. I started a morning devotion called Mother Wise at our church, Beaverton Four Square Church. It's been so great to talk with other moms with children Addy's age and pray together. We are having a cookie exchange Wednesday, so I must get baking! Have a wonderful Christmas!

Love,

The Krist's

New pictures

My new sleeping arrangment. On tummy, thumb in mouth. I won't accept anything else.

She loves her tummy time.

Big girl!!

She likes to play with these new found things called toes. She can almost get them in her mouth. I'm not sure how I feel about that!

So big in her Bumbo chair (actually it's Jennings, but we're borrowing it) and piggies.

Just a quick note and a couple new pictures.

We are getting ready to move out to Cornelius, Oregon this week and things are getting hectic. Moving with a five month old is not a simple task. But I'm learning. I am thankful to only have one little one right now. Nap time takes up a lot of time!

You'll also notice that Brian and I have become non-exsistant. I'll get some pictures of us up soon. Maybe some nice Christmas photos. :) Enjoy!

Five months going on....five years!

Visiting our new friend Owen Thomas.

Playing in my Exersaucer.

Smiling (not crying) in my carseat.

These last five months have gone by way too fast. So fast it's hard to find time to post pictures on here. She now rolls on her tummy to sleep and shoves her thumb in her mouth, just like mommy. It's so cute I let her do it, but I am trying to get her to take a binky instead. I can always take that away.

Her hair is getting really long I can put it in pig tails. She loves to touch your face and grab at anything in your hand or on your face (glasses).

Addy just started sleeping through the night for about 12-14 hours. We can't believe it and are counting our blessings. She is always happy when she gets up and VERY hungry lunging at my cheek or neck on the hunt for some milk. She is such a sweet baby. She is always so happy and smily.

Brian sometimes has to retrieve his fingers back from her slobbery little tight fists. She loves to chomp on his fingers, we are wondering if is couple little chicklettes are going to pop up here soon. We'll keep y'all updated. Have a wonderful Christmas and New Year if I don't chat with you before.
