Holiday prep...


Making green eggs and ham...in rainboots of course



Riding with Kaelin in the fancy new auto Eila built


Exchanging gifts with Kaelin


Decorating the tree



Designing ...



Little ladybug

Not for long...she mastered (un)zippering long ago

Eila is getting ready for Christmas and trying to kick all of the colds we have been battling for the last 6 weeks. We have high hopes of a healthy Christmas this year (last year was a disaster we try not to remember). We had a gift exchange with Kaelin and made pizza all together - rolled the dough, spread the sauce and sprinkled the cheese and mushrooms...all good fun for toddlers! We did a little photo op with a missed ladybug Halloween outfit. We have been getting ready for lots of cheer...we decorated the tree and enjoyed some hot cocoa. Eila is awaiting her holiday visit from Gigi and Grandad this weekend....she says "oh boy". Eila's other favorite thing to say now is "me too" and "Happy Birthday"- its super sweet, although its not anyone's birthday around here. New favorite foods- raspberries and green beans sauteed in olive oil (not bad choices for a toddler, but I'm sure we'll be back to pasta and cheese soon).

Lily says thanks for the gift! Please e-mail us your phone numbers, we can't find the paper with all our numbers on it. Eila is growing into a beautiful little lady/bug ;-)
