Baby's first Christmas was celebrated in our little house in Kirkland, partially packed to make the move to Mill Creek. Since he was crawling and walking, we opted out of a big tree and did a little one on the table and strategically placed present in a blockade type pattern so that he couldn't get to them and tear them apart. We turned on the tv to a network that play Christmas music and shows a scene of a fireplace burning and enjoyed some snuggle time and opened a few gifts before making the 10 minute drive to Zaidy's and Grandmama's house.
Grandmama has these stockings for all her kids and told us she was ecstatic to walk into Macys and find one in their holiday lane... I think she mentioned that they are made by one specific company and they hadn't carried in them in a long time - what a find! Now Harrison has his official stocking with his name to enjoy for years to come.
One of Harrison's gifts included two monkeys with velcro on the hands and feet so that they can wrap around each other or even a toddler in a hug-like-fashion. This is extra special becuase Michael also had a pair of monkeys growing up which he called his two-two's (becuase there were two of them) and carried they with him everywhere!

Later that evening, we went to Uncle John's and Aunt Shivonne's house for a family Christmas feast and... more presents! Of course, Harrison arrived in a sweater vest and was the life of the party.
