Some Christmas Photos

She insisted on jumping in all the shots.


So about a week before Christmas we decided Eliza needed a kitchen set for Christmas. She has been saying her Dad was going to make here a "Kitchen Set," for almost 6 months now. We don't know where she got this idea, but we thought we should make it happen. So 2 days before Christmas we decide we should probablly start making it, haha. So Micah used most of 2 days to get it done, and it came out really well. I contributed the pot holder. I know. I wanted to make some felt food, but it didn't happen, so she will have to do with the $5 worth of plastic food we bought. She really loves it. She walked right past the tree full of presents and we had to pull her away to open them. I think I truly realized at that moment that less is more with gifts. They get overwhelemed and greedy when the presents are free flowing.
The fridge.

Darcy, not the best shot, it was late and dark.

Cheers! We had friends over for Christmas dinner, and the famous Chloe Castro joined Eliza at the kids table.

I REALLY need to share christmas photos, but they are still sitting on my memory card. Lets just say there was a hasty last minute gift decision for Eliza, that resulted in a beatiful homemade kitchen set.

Here is another fruit tree in our yard. These are called rose apples, or in Thai, "Chompoo."

It tastes like a dry, bland apple, and looks like a pear a little. The red ones are sweeter, but my tree only has green.

And a few shots of the whats growing inside my house. Eliza is so ready to play with Darcy, it will happen all too soon.
A prelude to a smile...
And there it is!
She is starting to babble, and is totally sucking her thumb now. Its so cute.
