We spent Christmas with Lolo and Lola in Cleveland. After the initial (expected) busyness of the days surrounding Christmas proper, we were able to settle in and relax over coffee, puzzles, delicious Christmas sweets and many good meals. Thanks for hosting us dear Lolos!

| They stayed like this, David lying in her lap playing with his train, for about five minutes. So.cute. |
 |
| Lola's Christmas craft: flower arrangements. I got to make one too. |
 |
| Cinnamon is good for you, right? Good, because we're made out of these cinnamon rolls. |
 |
| Lamb for dinner, plum pudding for dessert. Full disclosure: stomach ache for bedtime. |

Leaving for Greenhouse Tavern in Cleveland. Thanks Jeff and Kate!!
Then on to Grandmommy and Pop pop for a delightful New Years' Eve soiree. Late night Scrabble and popcorn after the little ones (myself included :)) went to bed made for a fun evening. To be surrounded by family was comforting and stress-relieving after struggling through a week of insomnia. I think I speak for all mommies when I say to be taken care of by one's own mommy and daddy takes on indescribable value after one becomes a mommy oneself. :)
Frankie has been itching to use the new cupcake baking set Uncle Jeff and Aunt Kate sent her. We got busy today:

| Pink just seemed appropriate. |

| Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all! |
