Raising Vikings

“Hohoho, have you been a good little girl all year? Do you promise to be nice to your new baby sister?” “yes, Santa, yes!!!”

Leslie is finally starting to understand Christmas a bit, but not completely and it is so sweet to see. Excited for a week at the cabin!

This weekend daddy and Leslie adventured around the playgrounds with Leslie racing about on her little bicycle as I narrated our adventures

On Saturday, we went over to a friend’s house for a big party of making Christmas cards and playing with other kids :)

We snuggled on the couch and read books, then we played with play-dough and made tasty cinnamon rolls and Leslie sat on my lap on the couch

For some reason, I have always viewed bath time as a very idealistic kind of bonding time between parent and child…

Dear family, I hope you are as ready and excited for the holidays as I am. I love you with all of my heart and I love this time of year!

On Sunday evening, we decorated the house and tree. I love it! Christmas music, dancing, silly games, and Leslie had so much fun…

You have been difficult now for a couple of weeks and we have reached the absolute limit.
