After the funeral we had 3 days to get everything ready to go to my parents for a week, and finish up Christmas shopping, etc. For those of you who don't know, my second cousin Kaydee died after being hit by a car while she was helping a girl who was hurt in a car accident on the freeway.

Christmas day she spent sleeping the entire time we opened presents. She got all kinds of toys (which she totally needed).

Chris and I had a great Christmas. It was good to spend Christmas with my family, especially after what happened to Kaydee. Makes me cherish every moment I spend with them and not take any of that time together for granted.
On the 27th my line sister got married. It was so good to see my sorority sisters. We figured it had been 4-5 years since I've seen most of them. Seriously how does time fly so fast? 4 years!!! The wedding was beautiful. The bride is a vocal performance major and does musical theatre, so her friends who sang were amazing. I got chills when they sang. The reception was so much fun. The DJ was awesome. Chris commented that it was the most multicultural event he's ever been to. LOL The bride was Korean/African American and the groom was Korean. At the table we sat at (with my sorority sisters) we had Korean, African American, Indian, Hispanic, Caucasian, and multiple multiracial people.

Ryleigh had her 2 month checkup on December 23rd. She weighed 11 pounds 3 oz. 22 inches long. She got shots too. I guess my faith in medicine prevented me from delaying her vaccines, so I'm praying she is unaffected by them. She had a fever for a day or two, and was a little fussier than normal. Although her fussiness started a few days before she got her shots. It lasted about a week and a half, and now she's back to normal. If even better, than before. She's been going to bed closer to midnight. And being so content playing on the activity gym mat. She was so content she even fell asleep on it today.
Can't wait to see what the new year holds with our little family :)
Such a sweetheart:
