Granddad and Mahwen having a very serious discussion about shapes. 

More snow pictures

Uncle Kevin is trying to clean off his Trooper. It's hard to make much progress when there isn't anywhere to put the show you shovel away! 

Even more presents at Nanaw's house

 

I think this was actually Maria's present, but Mahwen wanted to help out. 

playing with Aunt Maria

and my new "Auckadoodoo." Thanks, Nanaw. PS: I think Aunt Mia might like one, too. 

A colander

Part of my very realistic new set of kitchen gadgets. Thank you, Grandmama and Granddad. 

 

Daddy's Girls

Celebrate in style with bows on their heads. 

More presents for Mahwen

 

Madeline's gifts from Santa

She looks intrigued. 

A new baby and stroller

It's time to continue catching up on Christmas pictures. With my Daddy's new computer and new software, this is much easier! 

Reciting to myself today

I don't care if I never see another bug in my WHOLE LIFE!

What are you trying to say, Mahwen? 

She looks happy enough, I guess. 

Madeline has been acting hungry and smacking her lips whenever she sees us big people eating, so today Mommy offered her a little snack. She did not give her Cheerios or grapes, as I would have done, but some stuff that had the consistency of glue without being nearly so yummy looking. Madeline pretty much played with her spoons and gave herself a facial. 

Madeline's happier being warm and cozy inside, thank you very much.
 

and Baby One

(October 2004). So which one is the chubbliest, hm?
 

Baby Two.......

Mahwen Tofie got some use out of my old snowsuit. I am not sure she liked it.
 

Back at home

Daddy was supposed to put the Christmas lights away this week, but he was out of luck.
