We had a very low key New Years Eve on Long Island with the family. It was exactly what we needed as we ended 2011 and thought about all the exciting times we are about to have with our Aubrey in 2012.
We always spend the days after Christmas at Nana and Papa's. It was extra special this year because it meant our Massachusetts family could meet an itty bitty Aubrey. Big brother Grahm proudly introduced her to Uncle Matt, and Grandpa and Grandma Bourque, Grandpa Hutton and Mary, Karen, Emily and Andrew. We can't wait to get back!
Aubrey was only 3 weeks old for her 1st Christmas, even so Santa left her presents under the tree. What was most special about Aubrey's first Christmas was getting to meet and be with her extended family. Grandma, Aunt Pat, Uncle Keith and Aunt Amanda got to spend Christmas eve with her, while on Christmas day she got to meet the rest of the Kelly clan. We were especially excited for her to meet her cousin Bryanna who is only 8 weeks older. The two looked like dolls all dressed in their Christmas best. We know they will have lots of fun together in the future, just like their moms did.
Nana and Papa came to meet their newest grandbaby, and Aubrey slept through the whole visit! There will be many more special times ahead with Nana and Papa, just ask Grahm.
