Thanks!

Doesn't he look cute in this outfit?

It was waiting in the mailbox for us when we got back.
Thanks so much D & S!

His legs need to grow a bit for him to be proportional...
Chubby little monkey!

Back Home

So we're home again. After two days of driving, it is sure great to stretch. The kids think so too! The weather was not fabulous, but the roads were mostly okay. Philip drove like Super Daddy, driving on at terrific speeds through thick and thin, and flashing people with his high beams if they we're going more than 10km/h over the speed limit and blocking his way. Looked just like Super Mario crashing through stuff and sending things flying, squishing bad guys with a hop while still trying on and not stopping.

But now we have stopped.

Happy Old Year

From there Daniel would like to wish you a happy old year.

And show off his cute dimple, of course.

Are we there yet?

Never fear

We are here.
Just so you don't worry.

We made it east on schedule...
maybe I'll take out my camera some day...

Pack

Next time I pack for a holiday with a less-than-a-month old, I think I shall actually do some packing before the last day.

I'm stiff.

And not done.

No pics today 'cause the camera is in the bag. Lest I forget it.

Blue blue green Christmas

Phil is at a work Christmas "do" right now.
I am at home with the kids
Who aren't listening to me
And are fighting with each other.

I am SO not jealous.
I guess I could clean the house
Or feed the kids.
Or pack for Wednesday...

Instead of moping.

Before the fall

of my pride:

Behold a perfect domestic scene.

(Nathan made the irons for everyone)

Then I was busy cleaning up a "mess" in the bathroom,

Leaving the youngest one rather vulnerable.

He was rather shaken in his rocking chair when I came back.
Poor guy!


I doubt that it was enough to cause damage...
but as a mother, I like to worry anyways.
