a walk to the library {a video}

Even during these dreary and cold January days, we try our best to get outside as much as we can.  Even if it means just a quick walk around the neighborhood after school. Last weekend we bundled up and headed to the library.  We go to the library at least once a week, but it was a special treat to get to enjoy the warm sunshine on such a brisk day and walk the mile there. Everdeen was a trooper and walked the entire way! The walk home was a different story :) She fell soundly asleep in the sling on the way back and I was one happy mama having my tiny tot snoozing in my arms!

Christmas {Numero Uno}

We have been soaking in our time together before I head back to work next week. It's been such a wonderful break, filled to the brim with family and friends! :) We got to celebrate Christmas twice this year.  My twin sister and her husband came at the beginning of December and we had our big family celebration then. That time together with my family is what I look forward to all year. We are all home and under one roof...just like old times, just the way it should be. I even gladly agreed to sleep on the couch if it meant my sisters and I were all sleeping down the hall from one another. We played games, went for walks, watched movies, and watched the kids play. It was simple, and that's okay. It was just what we all needed.
