A long delayed post

I have been having trouble posting of late. I think blogger and my decrepit, virus-riddled computer have teamed up to thwart me. I have tried to write a Christmas recap post many times, only to give up in frustration when I can't move photos around or accidentally delete text. So here is my last ditch effort, jumbled photos and all.


 Christmas happened: Here are the girls after Christmas Eve Mass and before setting out cookies for Santa. They decided to write last minute notes to Santa, which is always good for a parent's blood pressure. You can see excitement was running high.

 

Nanny and Papa came to stay the day after Christmas which meant stinky cheese and port for dessert.

It was a very Hobbity, Lego-y Christmas at the Speier house. Luckily I married a man who enjoys building things out of tiny pieces of plastic.




 


Isaiah got lots of adorable winter wear from his relatives.
 
Audrey followed in Lili's 2nd grade footsteps and donated her hair to Locks of Love



The girls' school put on a production of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. They had a blast.




This little man continues to grow and light up our lives. He is finally rolling around, but in general remains a sweet, contented blob of chub.



So that's it for now. Hopefully I can get back to posting more regularly
