I can't believe it is already 2008! The Rickman's had a lovely holiday season. We were lucky that Nana and Papa were able to come down and spend the holidays with us. Gram and Grampy were also in town and came to see the present opening. Michael loved Christmas - he kept saying "wow, look at that" over and over when he saw the loot left by Santa. Robbie wasn't quite as excited, but he loved playing with the wrapping paper.
Robbie made his stage debut as the St. Luke's baby Jesus. He did wonderfully - slept through the whole event. I was a proud and nervous mom squatting in front of the pews as Mary (played by one of the 5th grade girls) rocked him. She looked tiny compared to the 20 lbs baby "J" in her lap. All the girls loved to dote on him and he LOVED having all eyes on him. Thanks to everyone who came to watch: Godparents Frank and Gloria, Andrew, and Emily Meaux, Wyatt and Caroline Engwall, Justine, Pat, Rhett, and Lily Foo... and of course Nana, Papa, Gram, Grampy, Aunt Julie and Uncle Jim! We had quite the cheering section.
New Year's resolution - keep this blog more up to date! Holiday pictures coming soon....
