This year, we traveled to Indiana for Christmas to see Chris' family. We had a lot of fun and are definitely glad we went. We were fortunate enough to stay with Chris' cousin Lindsay, her husband Nick, and their daughter Emma. THANK YOU! We had such a good time with them and wished so much that we lived closer to one another. It was fun to see Emma and Praetorian interact. She wasn't so sure about him at first, especially since he was grabbing at her within the first 5 minutes of being there. She seemed to warm up though and it was good practice for her new brother Calvin who will be here any day (hopefully sooner than later for Lindsay's sake):) We were also very happy to see Chris' brother Andy since it has been a few years and was his first time meeting Praetorian. Praetorian definitely loved his Uncle Andy. Grandma and Grandpa Taylor were happy as always to see Praetorian and it was hard to leave when the time came. Here are some pictures from our trip.

First Christmas - Rivenbark Family

Taylor Family


Rivenbark Kids and Dogs Plus Praetorian


Nana and Grandpa Rivenbark (We are still working on a name for my Dad - I may have to edit this later because I'm not sure what was final!) :)

Praetorian opening a box of clothes from the Rivenbarks! It seems like he knows what he's doing, doesn't it? hahaha:)

This year was Praetorian's 1st Christmas (obviously). We first had Christmas with the Rivenbark family at the end of December before we left for Indiana. Praetorian was more interested in eating the paper than anything, but it was fun anyways. Thanks everyone for our presents, we love them all! Here are a few pictures from the Rivenbark Christmas.

SEVEN MONTHS

Praetorian turned seven months old on the 23rd of December. We were in Indiana visiting Chris' relatives for Christmas, so we took his 7th month picture at his Grandma's. He now seems to understand that he needs to smile for the camera. Those weird faces he was making in pictures before are no more. I think it's pretty amazing that a 7 month old can understand smile for the camera. He also started sticking his tongue out a lot more and making a lot of sounds with his mouth this month. He just started pulling himself up on things too. And he's got the Military Crawl down pat and he is fast too. He just brings so much happiness to Chris and I, it's hard to believe he's ours sometimes. :)
