Elianna and Regan, piano duet partners extraordinaire!

(Surprisingly, they both have their own soothers in their mouths in this photo, a rare happening. Usually they steal each other's. I guess the soother's always suckier in the other kid's mouth, or something.)

There's a REASON why we tied our christmas ornaments on a string this year! :)

I love the Christmas season. The twinkly lights, the family gatherings, the crinkly wrapping paper...

...but I HATE this HAT!!

Rub a dub dub, two cousins lovin' the tub!

Well folks, reality has finally sunk in. Today feels like negative 29 degrees with the windchill and for the first time ever, I think the weather just might keep me and Ellie inside. I guess we really did move to Manitoba after all. Darn.

Elianna's opinion of tomatoes.

Look Grandpa Rick and Grandma Sue - I'm walking!

As you can see, Mr.Christie really does make good cookies!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

(The best part of this day was playing in the box that grandma and grandpa Balfour sent Daddy's present in. That plus chewing on a party hat...who could ask for anything more?

Elianna has learned how to sit...

...almost!
