I hope that everyone had a lovely Christmas.
I know that for some, Christmas is a difficult time for various reasons. Often that can come from a feeling of loss of those loved one that are no longer with us. It can be difficult as well for those of us who are trying hard to add new family members and knowing that they are spending yet another Christmas away from family. Jason and I could certainly feel that sense of "something is missing" this year. While I am confident that our children across the ocean are being well taken care of, and even having Holiday celebrations, I can't help but wish they were home to celebrate with us. I pray that this is the last Christmas they have to spend without a forever family.
We spent Christmas Eve with Jason's parents and Grandmother. It was a nice, relatively quiet evening. Christmas morning we lazed around the house, well, at least Jason and I did... Claudia has been a whirlwind of energy this week. We spent Christmas afternoon with my parents, sister, her fiance and my nephew. Claudia did great at dinner although gift time was a bit much for Claudia. I think she was all gifted out!

I have not posted videos in a long time, so enjoy our silly Christmas morning videos below!
Don't mind Claudia telling us she has to go potty!
