Well, Hello.

I am slowly emerging from the aftermath of a post Christmas stomach bug.  Do you know how much laundry accumulates when a mama is out of commission for a week...a whole mountain.  I'd like to say I spent my day getting on top of that mountain, but I didn't. Instead I crocheted a bib.  Oh, the things that take precedence over chores around here.  I should probably be ashamed.  Of course, now I'm putting the pile off even further by blogging about it...oh, well.

It seems that I'm the last person in the blogosphere to post Christmas photos. (We'll just ignore for the moment that whole New Year thing.)  Other than Stephan being sick we had a really lovely Christmas.  It was Sophia's first (like y'all couldn't guess that).  She was duly impressed...

Especially by the wrapping paper...

I'm telling you this gal is like sunshine.  Seriously, all she does is smile and laugh...all day long.

Levi was especially into things this year.  He tried to open ALL of the presents...including the ones that weren't his.

The Arctic playmat was a hit.  Playmats always are around here...

At one point after hearing the Christmas story Levi was convinced that Sophia was baby Jesus.  He cracks me up.

I hope y'all had a very merry Christmas full of family and laughter.  I'll leave you with one more Sophia picture...because she's just so darn cute!
