Things are quiet here.  The baby is sleeping (so is the husband). No television or music or phone.  Only the soft hum of the furnace and gentle breathing of the dog.  I so enjoy my moments like this, especially after a hurried weekend, and wish I would have taken more advantage of them before we became three.  Then again, I think I got more done because I didn’t have to pick up so many toys.

We had a joyful holiday with the family and we’re glad we got to spend time with them but we are looking forward to doing our own thing next year, when hopefully Scott has off.  I hope you got to enjoy some quiet at this bustling time of year.
