Merry Christmas!

I am excited about Christmas! Christmas always gives me this warm fuzzy feeling on the inside.  I am not just saying that either, I love Christmas!  Even though J and M are not going to be able to be with me on Christmas Eve {for the third year in a row} I am excited to be able to give them their gifts!  Their eyes lighting up and seeing their face is what I look forward to.  Of course since I am pretty sure I got each of them something they are going to love the anticipation is even more intense! 
This time of year also makes me think of family traditions and foods that we can make each year.   On Pinterest I have a Recipes to Try folder.  In my perusing I found a recipe for Christmas Trees.  I have never made rice krispy Christmas Trees before and thought it would be fun.  It was!  I used parchment paper to shape the trees and then had frosting all over my hands as I tried to put on the m&m's and stars; the only things missing were J and M.  Now if they are edible still on Monday.......

Logan

Babies are so precious!  This little guy included.  He was so fantastic, and yes he was fantastic while he was wide awake!  We just kept him all cozy wrapped in his blanket and next to mom.
