Is there a better time of year than Christmas for taking cute pictures? This Christmas the Boo and I headed to my parents' house, which is much bigger than our house and has steps, goggs, meows, and fishies. 
There were lots of newly accessible things for the Boo to explore, and she did so with gusto. My parents thought they had childproofed the house, but it wasn't really. Not to a two year old. Not when great-grandma's china is in the lower cupboard of a buffet behind the couch and china cabinet doors that have no locks. We didn't lose anything fragile, thank the Lord, but there were a couple of close shaves.

and Grandpa let her borrow his giant kitties.
Dollie got a new set of clothes.
And so did Mommy and Annika. I think she was more happy with Dollie's new clothes.

She discovered the joys of Christmas decorations, and everyone else enjoyed the pleasure of a two year old discovering new things. 
They also got snow, for which I was grateful. We haven't gotten any. I know my readers in Iowa (and now the east coast) will say, "Are you crazy? Be grateful you don't have snow." I know snow can be a burden, but around here, a little snow is like a rainbow. It reminds us that the seasons do indeed change and that while the earth endures, springtime and harvest, summer and winter will never cease. 
Plus it makes cute pictures.
And tired babies. Good night.

I keep looking at your blog hoping to see those January pictures you made reference to, but still just see Christmas pictures. Could you post some new one's some time soon when/if you have time?? I miss seeing what's going on in your lives.
Love you guys!!

*(Or you could just come out to Iowa to visit Seth's grandpa, then I'd get to see you in person which would be much better. :D )
