Stepping Into Christmas

Here are some photos of the busy and fun weeks leading to Christmas! Decorating, class parties, girls night at the Nutcracker, kids and dad out on break, going to Santa's Wonderland with cousins, and many more things not pictured!

Binky Braces

Soph was a big time binky baby. And as a result, she gets to have braces and an expander at the ripe age of (almost) 9! A word of warning to parents of binky kids -- orthodontia ain't cheap. Anyway, she was pretty excited about the prospect, but the pain has set in now, so things aren't as fun as they were on the first day. She sure is growing up fast, and pretty soon her beautiful smile will be full of straight teeth!
