Christmas on any given day

on Friday we had Christmas. We watched classic Rudolph and Grinch (abominable snowman still in the queue) and decorated cookies: We also put on our Christmas jammies and took a picture:
Saturday we had Christmas again. My dad always gets the best trees:B enjoyed helping hand out and unwrap presents:We skyped with Tim, cuddled with Emily (and everyone else!), and were ridiculously excited about our gifts.
On Sunday, we had Christmas with the other side of the family. And guess what? We get to do it again on Monday with just us. Pics from those two events forthcoming...after we take naps and play outside, that is.

Been awhile...

I couldn't even remember my password! Rather than trying to recap everything that's happened in our lives since March, I think I'll just jump right in with today and see who even notices that I've posted. Too bad, because there are about 500 pictures on my camera you'll probably never see... eh well, such is life.

P and C are ridiculously happy about the (little bit of) snow we've had this winter. To celebrate, I made white playdough with glitter this morning. My table has never been so festive, and I'm pretty sure there will be sparkle in our food for the rest of the season.

While they created in the dining room, I was in the kitchen working on a couple of stocking stuffers: popsicle stick puzzles. C especially has become VERY interested in our puzzles lately, so I have a feeling he'll appreciate these. And yes, the snowman is sitting in the grass. What can I say, it's been that kind of winter. Anyone have ideas of how to package these? I'll probably make little drawstring bags eventually, but for now they're probably getting rubberbanded. Oh, and for those of you who haven't seen B lately, here is the little booger: He's fully in that funny toddler stage of wearing coats in the house, carrying kittens upside down, and generally causing a nuisance inspiring laughs and cuddles every minute or two.
