Today was one of those magical days, filled with snowmen (even a snowcat), baked cookies, hot chocolate and time well spent together.
We had a snow storm last night that left us with just enough snow, of the sticky sort to roll some snowmen! Our neighbor had started before we headed out this morning and the kids had a blast playing with her. She has to be the coolest 12 year old ever! She always plays and entertains the kids with her amazing ideas.
Cordelia even came out, riding on my back. Hurray for babywearing! She was all comfy and cozy, giggling like crazy at the kids and the neighbor’s dog that came out to play. It was fun to be able to include her.
This afternoon, as I stitched like mad to finish up some Christmas presents we are delivering tomorrow to friends, J & Becca baked up some cookies for us to share. Ethan and Cordelia kept me company and I finally completed the handmade gifts. I hope the kids like them. I get so nervous! Hopefully before we head out tomorrow I can take some pictures (’cause you know I still have to wrap them!)
It was truly a great day.
Tomorrow we head to friends and J escapes to work for a few hours. I am so excited for Christmas this year. We have our three amazing children, each other, a great house and so so much love.
Are you ready for the holidays? Enjoying the time so far?

Your snowmen are awesome! We just got that same snow, about 20 inches worth here. When it came down it was powder but I bet we could make a snow make out of it now. I love that you took Cordelia out to join the gang. I bet the hot chocolate was great. I think hot chocolate taste the best after playing in the snow.

Hee hee, I’d love to see the snow cat! What kind of carrier do you have Cordelia in? Any tips on wearing a child on your back? Never tried that before.
