Baby

Bernadette is a mom! She loves baby very much.

Christmas

 First, here’s the official, everyone-looking-not-blurry, Christmas picture. Charlie is not delighted, but Isi is, and I’ve never gotten both.

Lucy showed Bernadette she has pockets 

Girls!

James got Bernadette to join him

We tried to do pictures with this sunrise but the light (and my lens?) made it blurry.

Backpack

We went out for a walk in the woods and Bernadette rode in the backpack. She seemed very suspicious of the whole thing.

Hair brushing

Isi and Bernadette were playing together today and B was in charge of hair. She followed her all through the house, brushing.

Biscuit

Bernadette loves this book and will look at it all the time. I'm sure there is a reason why a child lined all the kitchen chairs up but I do not know what it is.

Entertainment

Nora is keeping Bernadette busy looking at her own baby pictures 

Clothes

She's wearing Isi's slipper and shoe, Tessa's dress, and who knows what hat

Mountaineers

Gingerbread houses

 Lucy and Nora made a chicken coop

Tessa and Isi made a pretty house

Charles, James, and Max made a house of horror

Popcorn sales

Who could resist this face? (Almost everyone)

Sliding

 

Ice skating

 For Max’s birthday, we went ice skating. Well, not me and Bernadette (or Charlie, who didn’t enjoy it).It was Isi and Justin’s first time!

Corn dog

Bernadette loves a hot dog, and she was able to gnaw this down no problem
