Napping in nothing but a diaper.

Rayleigh in the boat from Pop-Pop playing with her stuffed animals.

Uncle Shawn, upon noticing she wasn’t very wobbly anymore enjoyed playing with her. She, however, was fascinated with Christmas tree in the corner.

Cousin Mason entertained Rayleigh while Kevin and Kelsey visited with the other adults! He’s a great big cousin.

Showing off gifts from Aunt Lennae and Uncle Jim who spoil the nephews and nieces with gifts from Montana.

Although she is young, she was fascinated by the process of unwrapping and even attempted to help (and then promptly eat the paper).

Rayleigh patiently awaiting gift distribution at the Ernst Family Christmas- the last time she’ll be patient for this in many years we are sure.

Kahlan and her mom Kim- Kelsey’s cousin who we visited with at Hershey on our trip to PA. Niala -Kahlan’s sister and Rayleigh were the main attraction as neither family had met the others most recent addition.

Rayleigh studying a book she got for Christmas. She loves books!

Paul and Jill in front of the train display at Union Station in Washington, DC.

We took a trip to DC. This is Kevin, Rayleigh and Paul (Pop-Pop) on the metro going into the city the week after Christmas.

Our tree decorated with LED lights and with the wrapped presents- none of which were opened here in New York.

Kevin and Rayleigh showing off their hats. Kevin modeled Rayleigh inside his jacket much of the winter.

I’m dreaming of a white … Thanksgiving? Yeah, it snowed in Danville Thanksgiving day.

Kelsey, Kevin, and Rayleigh posing with Father Christmas in downtown Saratoga Springs at the Victorian Stroll.

Jess holding Rayleigh in Irish Times, a bar in Saratoga.

Apparently, this was Pop-Pop’s idea of quality time with Rayleigh. 😛

Kevin with his dad, who carved the Thanksgiving turkey that we bought from our local free range poultry farm.
