You see that photo? That’s what I had to endure Christmas day and the days leading up. The poor thing was a sniffling, coughing, cranky handful! Christmas was still beautiful despite the infant-induced headaches. The best gift I received? An imprint of Nia’s hand that she made at her new daycare. I got all teary-eyed when I unwrapped it. That precious and tiny hand. And she’ll be 1 in less than two months, I can’t believe it!Of course Nia didn’t know what was going on. My dad bought her a keyboard. She also had a few other gifts, but it seemed her favorite thing to play with was the wrapping paper! Does this remind you of the wooden spoon? Hahaha!!
It was a great day! Our family had an ‘Asian Christmas.’ We were a little sick of the traditional dishes of collard greens, yams, dressing, etc. So we suggested everyone bring an Asian influenced dish. There were egg rolls, fried rice, crab wontons, and much more. It was nice to mix things up a bit.
I hope everyone parties safe tonight.
2008 is gonna be my year, but more on that in my new year’s post.

Hate to LOL but it reminds me of my Christmas last year. Amina was on my hip the entire day — didn’t want anyone else to hold her or play with her! Don’t worry — next year will be better…

Poor little baby! Hope she’s feeling better. I remember the wooden spoon post, lol. She just loves the simple things! Her puffs are too cute.

She is too cute. What a great gift. I can totally sympathize with a very cranky baby Christmas. Hopefully next years will be better right?
