Eider's first Christmas

It has been a wonderful Christmas for the Reed family! All of us were spoiled rotten and got way too much stuff!? We are all very blessed!

I've decided Christmas is so much more magical when you have children...

Even though Eider couldn't have cared less about Christmas this year, It was fun to see him try to upwrap his presents. I think he was happier playing with the wrapping paper than the toy inside the wrapping!

ohhh....whats this?!

It was really fun to help Eider unwrap his presents...he eventually got the hang of it!

Danni Girl as always thinks she needs to help

I hope everyone's Christmas was as much fun as ours -- God bless!

Eider's blessing

Today we blessed Eider in our home...Jess gave a wonderful blessing and it was really cool having all of Jess' family there.

Sorry if we didn't invite many of you, but we had a lot of people to squeeze into our tiny little home.  

Please accept my apologies and enjoy a few pictures taken
