2013 and looking ahead

losing cinnamon was painful to us... life has changed, at least for myself, my perspective on life has shifted.  to get back into posting on the blog seems so difficult.

we received many wonderful stuff from Grandma for christmas.  many of the gifts were handmade.  they were exquisite little gifts and the kids are so lucky to have a all these handmade gifts.  

 

"Thanks, Grandma.  I love the Chuggington coloring book!

Grandma actually made Christian and Alex Chuggington and Yo Gabba Gabba! pillow cases.  The kids drag them everywhere, wherever they go.

 Grandma also made Alex her favorite Dora top and shorts.  She refused to take them off - even for a diaper change.   

Christian is 3 years and 10 months old
Alexandra is 1 year and 9 months old.

Grandma made a rag quilt for Alex - it's one of the softest things Alex slept in. I've never seen a rag quilt and this is truly exquisite! Thanks Grandma!
