Well it's just a couple days from Christmas and I can't believe how fast the last month has flown by. The last couple weekends have been full of work and church Christmas parties and the next couple days will be full celebrating the holiday with all sides of our family. Adilyn was given an adorable Santa outfit by her grandmother, so
she was the hit of all the parties when we arrived with our little girl dressed in red velvet :) She is smiling more and more these days and making adorable cooing sounds that melt our hearts every time! Seems like being a mom has become a little easier after Adilyn hit the three month mark--she is sleeping great at night (sometimes even lasting 7-8 hours at a time) so I feel surprisingly rested and both Tim and I are able to read her better to determine what she needs so there is less crying. I was just watching her last night on the changing table kicking her legs all over the place and looking around and thought to myself, "Wow, I'm so thankful Lord for having such a healthy and beautiful baby!"

She is exceptional Jess! I just showed the pictures of her to my mom and she fell in love.

Also, your CD is finally done and ready for the mail :)

Wow Jess- She is just Gorgeous!!!!! I can't believe how healthy and cute she looks... I still think of her as being so delicate (since she was premature)- but she just looks soooo healthy and strong. Praise be to God, what a gift.

We love you

OH! I'm thankful for you too, that she is healthy and lovely! Your daughter is absolutely beautiful. I'm glad you and Tim are finding yourselves a bit more rested too :)

I have the photo of the three of you that you sent with the Christmas card up on our fridge. Thanks! It always makes me smile-- your Adi is SO cute. I wish I could be with you to experience Jess as a mom. Feel free to share about it sometime! I'm so pleased for you both. Are you back at work now? How's that going? Hope you had a great Christmas/New Year's.
Hope all is well.

Love,

Rachel

Who is the artist? The photo on back is lovely. I can hardly wait to see your angel in person. I am really grateful to hear that everyone is in good health and enjoyed the holidays. How are things progressing with the new service? Do you feel the presence of the Lord at church as well as at home?
