Today was Eleni's first Christmas! I'm glad she isn't old enough to realize what is going on because Tyler and were able to sleep until 9:00. Even then we weren't rushed to get her dressed (even though we stayed in our jammies), eat a little breakfast, and pass out the gifts. As you can see she got a good amount of gifts and those are mainly from grandparents. We wrote a letter to Santa to only bring her a couple of things since she has no idea who he is or what is going on.

She "opened" a couple of gifts then started to get fussy so Mom and Dad got to open the rest.

Here she is enjoying one from her Great-Grandma Conner.

After we opened gifts and Eleni took a nap we got ready for our Christmas hike. Last year we did it on Christmas Eve but Tyler had to work yesterday. We broke out the jumper today as a gift and she hung out there while we finished getting ready.

As you can see Tyler was excited to take her on her first hike. She did really well until the last 10ish minutes when she started to get tired again. And I'm sure the cold had something to do with it.

I had to get a picture of the cherry nose and cheeks. Just don't mind the spit-up.

Here they are in all thier glory. The dogs had a great time and we even found a pond that was frozen over for them to try walking on.

Here is a gift for all of you. We were finally able to get a good video of her talking.
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and hope a fantastic new year is on the way for all of us.
