Christmas Eve we were at Steve and Pat's house, though, and Shyla spiked a pretty high temperature. We rushed home in a panic and, although she had a pretty typical night, we didn't get much sleep. We have 3 different thermometers which always give 3 different readings. That night, as she slept, we probably took her temperature at least 10 times. She has felt pretty well since, thankfully, and for the moment we are blaming the spiked temperature on teething.
Because of that we didn't put out the cookies and milk for Santa or the Reindeer Food but the jolly old man still came around and still spoiled Shyla on her 1st Christmas.
This isn't actually a Christmas picture but it is a cute one from recent. Actually, I think this was taken while Daddy put up the Christmas lights!
Here is Shyla in her Christmas outfit! A good friend of mine, Kristen, had given me a Baby Gap gift card while I was on bedrest and we were saving it for something special. We bought this outfit there for Shyla to wear on Christmas. Turns out it was too warm for the sweater but the onesie says "Best Gift Ever" which couldn't be more true.
Shyla is pretty sure that Christmas is all about wrapping paper!
But she of course got books as well!
And more wrapping paper!
And The Hangover!We hope everyone had as amazing of Christmas as we did. It was a crazy day but we are thankful for every moment of it. We have so many friends and family who we love and want to see on Christmas day. We are so lucky!
Happy Birthday Jesus!

Shyla looks as delighted as you always were for a new book! It was a wonderful, crazy and blessed day.
What a cutie! And, I have to ask, whose nose is that with her in the first picture?
Love you sis! And love you Shyla! Ok ok and Stevie is ok too...
The Hangover, huh? Good parenting Kendra! ;o) Looks like (minus the fever) you had a great Christmas!
Shyla is on her way to some great cinema-viewing! Love that movie, and we even got ourselves the unrated version...glad to see hers isn't!
