Brunch, ice skating and sledding at Poppy and Yaya's

On Sunday morning, we celebrated Christmas with Poppy and Yaya. Eloise helped Poppy make waffles, the kids opened many many gifts, and we took Eloise sledding on the toboggan and ice skating on the lake for her very first time. So much fun.

Potatis korv. I think that it's an acquired taste and quite frankly, I've acquired it.

Sledding at Wealthy

We went sledding at Wealthy School on Christmas Eve morning. Eloise befriended a little boy while Maize played in the snow with his dog and George slept underneath a large tree.

Food!

We just started feeding Georger baby food last week. Rice cereal he simply will not tolerate, but bananas, apples, or peas? Delicious!

Looks a lot like Christmas

Our stockings are hung by the chimney with care

We hope that St. Nicholas soon will be here

Visions of sugarplums danced in his head

Our precious baby boy turned 6 months old today and we simply cannot believe it. Oh how we love him so.

Baking cookies

My helper followed a time honored Freeman tradition by licking the spoon after baking our delicious fudge. Yummers!
