A child was born...and is being born!

We're preparing for the feast of the Lord's Nativity, January 7th falls on a Thursday this year. I plan to bake sugar cookies with the girls and ice them...my fav is using plain icing and sprinkling coconut on top for snowflakes! This is my fav photo from last year...if Olivia was smiling with her teeth, you would've seen her 2 baby teeth, which fell out in the spring and are now replace with her adult teeth.

Right now, my dear friend (and our little matushka), Bethany, is in the hospital, having her 2nd child. I am praying for them and look forward to seeing them soon!
