Our merry little Christmas


Things have been, well, absurdly busy. Our family now has five children 3yrs old and younger, and two pregnant mammas. So, Christmas is just, mmmm, crazy. Sorry for the delayed posting. Here's our tree, which was going to be a table topper and ended up to be 12 feet when we brought it home, with all the presents from Alabama underneath. We celebrated at home on Christmas Eve, in order to avoid the too many kids too many presents problem on Christmas morning at grandma's. This was a really good idea.  
In addition to the indoor tree, we decorated a few outside and hung jingle bells from our windows. Here's a cool photo that Christian snapped looking out our wintery window. 
And, the presents...Silas got a wooden train set that he loves. 
Priya got a phone and a lot of clothes for herself and her dolls. 
Of course, the favorite present of all...cousin Titus got a handmade motorcycle swing that came in a box full of pink peanuts...the box and the peanuts topped all others..
