Have A Little Faith: Homecoming and Christmas

Okay so where do I start on this little catch up post??
Our Family is Finally back together and Complete again!!!
The Hubby made it home for MaKenna's first Christmas, we were so blessed to have him come home early. This homecoming is my excuse for not blogging. There was a lot of getting ready for him to come home, Waiting on him to get here and then of course after he was here blogging wasn't high priority.
The big question was would MaKenna know who Zach was or would she be afraid of him? I am happy to report after a lot of pictures, skype, recorded books, and the Bunny with Zach's voice, she knew who her Daddy was. It has been googly eyes ever since he got off the plane. Mama her is old news it is Daddy everything!. Although there is still a little confusion We think she still expects her Daddy to be on the Computer. The other night I open up the computer and she Sat up straight with and excited smile and said DaDa. (Something we will have to work on :)
THe day after he got home we headed out looking for a Christmas tree. Due to time we settled for going to a pre cut Christmas tree Farm, it was an easy decision and I believe that we picked out a Beautiful Christmas tree.

Waiting on Daddy to get off the Plane

The next day we had our Welcome home party!!

And then the Christmas Festivities began. MaKenna had a very eventful and exhausting First Christmas. It took her several days to recover (a lot of fussiness and sleeping), and then Mom and Dad needed a few days to recover from her recovery. Christmas Eve the Festivities began at lunch and continued until after 9 pm when we headed back home. We arrived at out house around 10:30 and MaKenna was out!! We attempted to wake her up so she could open her Christmas PJs (a tradition from my family) The poor thing was sitting straight up and fell over asleep with her eyes wide open it was pitiful. Then after that we disturbed her again so that we could read The Night Before Christmas and "The Christmas Story" From the book of Luke (a tradition from Zach's family) Then finally we allowed her to go to bed so that Santa could come.
