A message from Sadie....Matthew loves music and bops to anything with a beat.

Lots of fun at our house this morning. Sadie insisted she open everyone's gifts and got started while mom and dad weren't looking. Matthew enjoyed the wrapping paper most and got in on the fun by ripping gifts out of Sadie's hand when she got close enough to him.

While you've been swimming in Texas, we've been shoveling in Halifax!

Matthew has learned to drink from a sippy cup. Poor kids have been sick with croup this week. Sadie is on the mend but I think Matthew has another 2 sleepless nights to go.

Believe or not these were taken last weekend. The pool temperature was 68F, not too bad for December. Yup, only the kids got in.
