All she asked for this year was a penguin. Santa delivered and she couldn't be any happier about her little "Jumpy". Jumpy and Nudey have become quite the best buds-always accompanying Maisie on her many adventures and protecting her from the "nightmare bugs".

We were blessed to make it back to Oregon in time for Christmas. Austin's parents helped get us there and it was good to have some family time. We really miss our families being in Idaho, so we were thrilled that everything aligned perfectly (even the weather) so we could have a nice trip. We didn't see as many people as we were hoping to, but it was nice to just focus on family. Maisie and Emerson were quite the duo and Ellie and Jane (the chunky thighed cosuins) seeing how they are so close in age (3 1/2 months) were a lot of fun to get together too.

I think this was one of my favorite moments of this Christmas. Maisie so proudly wrapped and made a tag for the gift to her little sister. It was such a sweet reminder about what the Christmas season is really about.
