'Tis the Season

We took Leah to see Santa the day before Thanksgiving in order to avoid the lines. She was dressed up just like him and just kept staring at him. She was all smiles...like usual...and didn't cry once. All the girls working there were commenting about how well she did that I realized just how much I take her personality for granted. Thank you Lord Jesus for such a magnificent baby!!

We put up the Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving, and Leah was fascinated by all the action and lights. In fact, I don't know who was more interested: Leah or Booby...or Eric for that matter!

Eric bought a book of Christmas stories last year in anticipation of sharing them with our little "Peanut" (how we referred to Leah up until 30 May). He had his glass of wine, his robe and his slippers. All he was missing was a pipe!
