Photos from a lazy afternoon...

Last Wednesday, 1/16/13, Henry stayed in his jammies and we hung out together at home.  We have been so busy the past few weeks with activities (music class and swim lessons), play-dates, trying out the Waldorf play-group, and helping other friends out by watching their children.  It was nice just have the afternoon to ourselves.  No errands, nowhere to be, and nothing to do but just enjoy being together!  Here are some photos of my sweet (and growing!) boy! 







I swear I had nothing to do with the way he is sitting!
It just happened and I was able to capture it!

Christmas Part 2: The Domes

The day after Christmas we headed off to the Domes for our second Christmas celebration with the Sustar gang!  Almost everyone was there, and the few that were not were missed.  It was so wonderful to see everyone and spend some quality time at the Domes and with the yaks! 

The two littlest cousins, Henry and Margaret.

Christmas 2012


Here are some of the highlights from our Christmas this year!
We decided to celebrate Christmas morning at home on Christmas Eve so that we could spend Christmas Eve night and Christmas night at my parent's house.  Essentially we got to have two Christmas mornings.  Not a bad deal!
