Paige turned eleven months old on January 2nd!! It's so hard to believe! She is cruising the furniture a little now and loves playing with all of her new toys. She says, "mama", "dada", "hey", and "uh-oh" when she drops stuff. It is very cute!! She loves riding on her mermaid car that Aunt Cassie, Uncle Shane, Grant, & Brooke got her!! We are excited to see what the eleventh month brings!!

Hanging with friends!

Paige and Brennan smiling on the couch. The day after Christmas some of our friends meet at my mom's house to all spend a few hours together. It was so great to see everyone and we had a great time just hanging out and catching up. It was so neat to see all the babies play together.

Paige excited to see Ryan.

Brad, Jenn, Marcie, Bridgette, & Don. Marcie, Jenn, & Kate below. I had a great picture of all the girls and the babies but some of the moms had their eyes closed. It wasn't our finest moment:)

Merry Christmas

Paige and Christa looking sad because it was time to go:(

Paige excited to open presents! Notice the hat in the picture. It says, "Jenn". It was my hat from when I was little.

Sporting my first Christmas bib. Paige had a wonderful Christmas. We got to go to NY and spend time with all the family. We spent Christmas day on a plane in the morning getting to NY and then we went to Paige's great grandparents for presents and great food. Then we spent the rest of the day at Grandma's. It was a perfect first Christmas with Paige celebrating with all of her family. We celebrated with Brad's family on the 23rd too!

Christmas Eve

Here are some pictures of the Rice's at our Christmas Eve Service at church. Doesn't Paige look so beautiful? What a wonderful Christmas we had creating memories with our baby girl!!

Crawling finally!!

Paige started crawling on all fours finally on the 23rd! Before she just scooted and rolled. She also started pulling up the same day. Here she is playing with her great grandma and wearing her cousin Brooke's headband!!

Paige meets Santa Claus!

We took Paige to meet Santa Claus on her tenth month birthday with her friend Devin. Neither one of them were very excited to meet him. At first she looked at him and I thought she was going to like it. Not so much:(

Get me away from this guy!! What you can't see is after this she started to cry!! Maybe next year!!

Playing with my friend Devin

Devin, no hugging right now.

Did you not hear me?

Just chillin!!

A lazy Sunday!

Paige is trying to do more every day! She loves standing and is trying to pull up on things. She loves scooting and crawling backwards. She doesn't crawl fowards yet but gets around in her way. She is in to everything so it's the same. She is moblie for sure!

Do you love my stylish sweater vest and white blouse with my cropped cords? I am going for the best dressed baby award!!

So happy to play with my daddy.

You probably can't tell in the picture, but Paige's two top teeth have both broken trough the gums and are coming in. So now she is up to four teeth!!

Taking Pictures with my cousins!!

Brooke and I in our matching Christmas outfits. Aunt Cassie and Uncle Shane came over to take pictures for our Christmas card and some of me with my cousins for Christmas pictures.
