January 7th, 12:35 pm and I have done nothing productive from my list of "productive things to accomplish today". I did volunteer at school this morning, got my glasses adjusted, picked up dinner items for the week and .....I guess that is productive. But not from my list!

So let's blog some fun photos from Christmas instead!

Happy Birthday Baby Jesus! Our tradition of Birthday Cake for Breakfast was a Gingerbread Man shaped cake this year. Mieke has her Bitty Baby in a birthday outfit.

 Off to Grandma's house on Monday, Christmas Eve! Loaded with all the presents opened that morning. Mieke asked for a violin and Matt found one on Amazon (you can buy anything on Amazon!). She also asked for a LeapPad2. It has a camera and a video recorder. Mimi, had a role as camera operator for Mieke's antics. Mieke got a Bitty Baby and lots of clothes for baby to wear. Makes me long for younger days when I spent hours caring for Baby Tender Love.

Mieke and Mimi in the kitchen!

 The cousins were SO excited to be together on Christmas Day. Mimi made pajamas for the kids which required slight adjustment in waistbands and sleeves. Mimi, the seamstress.
