Getting Ready for Christmas

Slowly but surely we're getting ready for Christmas here at our house. Most gifts are bought, but not wrapped, cookies are baked (thanks to a cookie exchange our baby group had!!), and the tree is up and decorated. Although it's Reese's first Christmas we're taking it easy on the gifts this year, she won't know the difference anyway. But of course we have a few little things picked out for her. Since we're well into December we're taking every opportunity to wear all the Christmas clothes we've collected. Here she is with her Nana and Papa Anderson wearing her "Harrod's" Christmas sleeper that her Nana Murray bought her in London. :

Even Cashman got decked out for the holidays:

As you can tell from the pictures Reese is still a pretty happy baby........however, she does seem to be teething. She has very fussy days lately and fusses a lot when I breastfeed her. She has the rosy cheeks, rash on her face and drool..........the drool is unbeleivable! We can't see any teeth working their way up, but the signs are all pointing in that direction. It's so frustrating to see her in pain, and not know for sure what's going on. I guess you have to trust your instincts, so we're going with the assumption that she's beginning the teething process. Keep your fingers crossed that it doesn't drag on forever. Her teeth don't seem to be bothering her in this picture:
