December photos

Claire pretending that she enjoys sharing the bathtub

Greta likes to hang out under the bed these days

After that photo, Claire went under the bed for a photo too.

Admiring the Christmas pyramid

This is how I found Claire after naptime. She had carried the stool into our room so she could reach our advent calendar chocolate supply. I let her eat the piece of chocolate she had since it was so clever.

Another photo from our Leavenworth trip.

Catching up again - November photos

 The Saturday after Thanksgiving we went to Leavenworth. There was a free bounce house that was mostly empty. Claire had the time of her life!

Group shot at the Kris Kringle store. Greta was asleep and we didn't want to pull her out of the stroller!

Leavenworth was a bit exhausting for Greta

Bundled up for a walk in the cold

 On our way to Leavenworth so Claire could briefly play in the snow for the first time ever. It was cold!

Thanksgiving dinner. She actually ate it this year!

Cooking the jello for our Thanksgiving

Greta loves her toys

"I wished for ice cream!"
