Happy New Year! (6 days late)

Yes, I am a week late with the Happy New Year wishes. It’s been super hectic around my household, as I’m sure it has been with all you moms out there!

Christmas was a success! We hosted Christmas Day night here at our house ……. it went well, but I was overwhelmed and beyond stressed trying to throw everything together! This was my first (technically) Christmas as a mom and I enjoyed every second of it!

We also did our family pictures right before Christmas, so this post will have TONS of photos. My sweet little Abigail was sick the day we went for pictures, but she was a champ! 🙂

Here’s the whole gang.

That’s all for right now. I have lots of things to catch up on around the house.

But I do plan on writing more later tonight!
