Jake was so amazing during his First Christmas!  We went to my Grandma Carnagey’s on Saturday and he met a lot of people and was great during the entire day.  Then we went to church on Christmas Eve and Jake even met a new friend.  Later that day we spent the evening with Gama and Grandpa West and then spent the night at Grammie and Grandpa Carnagey’s.  He even slept in on Christmas morning but later enjoyed his first attempt at opening presents.  (Of course he was a little spoiled with presents but was so wonderful and flexible he deserved it.)  The Cookson side of my family came for dinner and Jake was so pleasant and easy going with all the new faces!  We have such an amazing little boy and are truly blessed to have been able to spend Jake’s first Christmas with our families!  We are looking forward to all the new year has in store for Jake!

Jake is still amazing (as if you didn’t think he would be)!!! He weighs 16 pounds and is 25 1/2 inches long!!! He is beautiful and is perfect! He sleeps through the night, laughs and smiles and has rolled over already! He is now sitting with assistance and loves it. He tries to do crunches to sit up on his own all the time. It is wonderful having him in our lives and we are so very thankful for him. We are looking forward to his first Christmas and New Year! As I am typing he is talking away!!!
