I've been busy!

Sorry for the delay, but the holidays haven't given me a lot of chances to update the blog. Here are a few photos from the past few weeks. We went to see the "real Santa" at the mall but I haven't scanned that picture in yet and it'll probably be awhile, if ever, before I do it. The Santa and Mrs. Claus below are from the Y and the beard is so obviously fake! The good news is that Natalie didn't cry at all and didn't really seem to care one way or the other about Santa. I bet that will change next year! Last night we lit the candles for the first night of Hanukkah and gave Natalie a new toy. It's a talking puppy and she seems to like it fairly well. It says all sorts of cute, self-esteem building things like "you're wonderful" and "I love you." Awww...
This will definitely be the last post before Christmas and possibly the last before New Year's. so we'll wish everyone happy holidays and best wishes in '09. We'll finish with my favorite outtake from our holiday card shoot.
