Alexis's First Christmas

Yesterday, I celebrated Alexis's first Christmas. It was such a sweet experience. Even though she didn't know what was happening, it was so great to see her spending time with her aunts, uncle, and grandma.



Of course, Alexis had to have a new red Christmas outfit for her first Christmas, so my grandma Beckemeyer and I went to pick one out the week before. Unfortunately, the hat did not fit, so I turned it into a headband instead. Which turned out great, because then you could see all of her beautiful curly hair.


And of course, the behind had to have a ruffle on it. So cute!


Yesterday was another first for Alexis. I fed her rice cereal for the first time. Her Aunt Sarah was making her laugh so hard that the cereal kept falling out of the side of her mouth. But I think she kept a little inside because she actually slept 6 hours straight last night for the first time in a couple months!
When we were done, there was cereal all over her mouth and all over her bib!
