Merry Christmas!

We hope you all have had such a great Christmas and New Years! We have been busy around here so I am just now getting to write the blog about Christmas! This Christmas was absolutely perfect! We just stayed home this year and got to have a nice Christmas morning at our house as a family and got to celebrate with my mom who was so sweet to come and help with Cooper and stay for Christmas! Mariella woke up and came downstairs to all the fun things Santa brought, but still didn't quite understand how she got to open all the gifts and they belonged to her! We ended up opening a few at a time through out the day which was fun! This Christmas will be one in which we will remember forever as it was our first here at our new house and where we got to start our Christmas traditions as a family! We are so thankful that God gave us His son and have been reminded through everything we are going through with our son Cooper how precious life is and how important it is to have faith in everything and trust Him completely. I plan to do an update on Cooper soon so please be on the lookout!

Merry Christmas from the Steveners!!!

(Mariella was so sweet to hand out gifts to Cooper! In fact that was the first thing she wanted to do when she saw all the presents...give her brother one! She is such a sweet big sister!)
