We've almost made it through the holidays, and what a crazy time it's been! December has been a month of firsts for Nicholas. He has had his first: visit with Santa, case of the sniffles, and snow storm. He also met his little cousin Jenna for the first time this month. It was so great to see the two of them together on Christmas Eve. If they only knew how long we have all waited for them to get here! There is no greater Christmas gift in the world.
His first visit with Santa went great, although 
he slept through the whole thing! Actually, sleep seems to be his favorite activity lately. Maybe it's the little cold that he has, or maybe he's just too busy growing to do anything else but sleep! We went to the doctor yesterday, and he's weighing in at a whopping 11 lbs 8 oz and measuring 22 1/2 inches! None of which is surprising considering the fact that he's already filling out his 3 month clothes. He had 3 shots yesterday and handled it like a trooper! Dr. Friedman worked very quickly, and after turning bright red and letting out one good scream... it was done. Five minutes later he was asleep, and no fever to speak of. Phew! I think it was harder on us than it was on him.

We would like to thank everyone for all of the love and support you have shown us this year. We are so lucky to have so many wonderful people who care about us. We truly believe that without your prayers and thoughtfulness, Nicholas would not be here. Also, we are overwhelmed by everyone's generosity. He has received so many gifts, and we thank all of you so very much. We would like to wish all of you a very happy and healthy 2009. Happy New Year!!!

He is sooo beautiful. I was so excited when Joe said you had a blog. I just started one too. www.kaileijune.blogspot.com. I enjoy reading them so I thought I would start one. Can't wait to meet Nicholas in person. Take care!
