Holiday travels

Croup update: croup is gone (I think), and now Eden's on the tail-end of a regular cold. Glory glory hallelujah!

I promised an overview of our 2011 holidays, so here they are.

We visited my mom and step-dad and Eden opened enough presents to supply Santa's workshop for 12 years.


We stayed with my dad and his wife and family for a few days and visited the lights at the zoo.


Eden discovered the joy of slides while we were there.


And the sandbox.


We also visited Kevin's parents and had a nice dinner with them. Then we came back to Alabama to have a relaxing Christmas morning together. Eden loved the stockings.


And just because I think this photo is funny (she's playing with a necklace):


Then we went to church and sung lots of Christmas carols.


Then we came home and she discovered the oven mitts.


And finally Kevin took my favorite photo of Eden and me the other day so I thought I'd include it, too. Here's actual proof I'm pregnant. It's probably the only photo I have of me pregnant with Baby 2. I hate what's happened to my belly button, but I won't complain too much because I've been blessed with no stretch marks. Thank you, genetics from Mom!
