Here we are!

We've been busy, busy! Last Saturday was our 7th anniversary (!) so we had a photographer come take pictures of the family and it was a lot of fun. Unfortunately, I can't post them here because I don't have access to copy&paste them. Ricardo made cheese fondue from scratch for dinner and it was fabulous. On Sunday our church had it's Christmas celebration service which was spectacular! It told the story of Jesus through song, dance and video and was a really special time. Alexia SCREAMED through "Silent Night" when the whole sanctuary was only lit by candles and the singing was quiet. It just reminded everybody (because everybody heard her) that baby Jesus was a crying baby too.

Diego had a Christmas lunch at school on Monday and it was so much fun to see him in his element there. Baby Alexia was a hit with his classmates so I had to put her up on the counter so their sticky little fingers wouldn't touch her.

Diego spends a lot of his days lining up and counting his toys. I'm trying to upload a video of it so hopefully it will be up soon.

Alexia seems to have colic and has been having a really hard time in the evenings and doesn't sleep well at night - we're praying it doesn't last for too long. She is sound asleep in her swing right now so it's time for my morning coffee!

Here are some pictures from the week:


Diego loves playing with his legos and builds and rebuilds this tower



Alexia loves watching the blinking star

We decorated cookies together and he loved eating the decorations
