Highlights of the Holidays

The snuggly kids were off on adventures over the holidays.

They both decorated the tree inside...




and climbed the trees outside.

One helped Daddy make his first pie dough...

...while the other was enthralled by Opa's reading.


In the city, they rode buses...


braved the cold to visit the zoo...


and discovered that bagels make a great alternative sniffer if you maintain that
"the backseat is stinky"


or if you're in the stage where you imitate your big sister.

Culture and the Kid

What's not to love about taxidermied skunks?

One!

With the help of her cousins and sister, The Peanut turned one this weekend! The grandparents visited and had a great time. Her bleary-eyes parents rejoiced and ate cake.



What is more delicious: the cake or the spoon?



TP shares her favorite book, "Farm" with Opa, who knows a little about that subject.



The annual birthday photo: everyone is aging nicely!

Peanut On The Move!

Only nine months old, our Peanut has achieved mobility (through the use of technology). Her big sister is more than happy to help her along. Everything in the house will now move upwards by two feet.

Family celebrates

Hanukkah looks different now that there are two sets of siblings in attendance.

Also note that several people were all angling for this shot. There is another camera seen in the lower right. The cuteness is magnetic.


And another sort of celebration occurred when grandma, daddy and the big TSK went to the nutcracker.

The little TSK celebrated by sitting in a historic chair.
