Merry Christmas Leah

Leah's first Christmas was spent in China, so we are going to really have to make it up to her next year.  I was thinking about her all through the holidays and wishing she could be with us.  On Christmas Eve the boys opened a special present for Leah which was her stocking.  It is so cute.  I must say it has been fun to start shopping for a few girl things around here.  We hung it on the mantle, and Luke and Seth were so hopeful that Santa would bring Leah some presents.  He did!  She got some really cute clothes, a few soft toys, and new crib bedding.  We are going on round four with our crib and changing table, but she got the cutest new bedding, and we're going to transform the nursery into one fit for a little girl.  We are feverishly working away at finishing the basement so that may or may not be done before we travel!



The boys are each so excited in their own way to have a sister.  (Okay, so I don't know if Ian is really excited.  He doesn't exactly get it, and it may rock his world a little!)  Leah is one lucky little girl to have these three little men for big brothers.


We sent Leah some Christmas jammies in her second care package, so I'm hoping she got them.  I can't wait to have her in the traditional Christmas Eve PJ picture next year!

P.S.  Lots of people have asked me what they can do to help...check out my note on the sidebar about the 100 Good Wishes Quilt!
