It's hard to believe that Christmas has already come and gone for another year... This year, we spent Christmas Eve at Josefin and Tim's and then later at mom and dad's. We were lucky to have all of the Johansson's together this year and we have grown by one since last year. Anna and Isabelle were 3 and 5 months last year, and this year, Annika was 1 month old at Christmas. 'twas so nice to have a wee babe to hold.
The kids opened up their gifts at Josefin and Tim's, and both Anna and Isabelle were given doll cradles, handmade by morfar. So beautiful. Anna has put her little doll to bed dozens of times already in that cradle. First she wakes the baby up and gives it a hug and kiss, then drops the baby back into the cradle (usually in some very misshapen way), tosses the blanket over the baby, and then puts her finger over her mouth in a 'ssshhhhh' gesture. Then the cycle starts all over again just moments later.
We ended the night at mom and dad's, barely able to move because we were too full, but managing to cap the night off with some santa porridge anyhow.
