Christmas with Baby

This little wonder who is my niece makes for a very interesting after-Christmas celebration. We did the second family Christmas on New Year's, when my sister and brother-in-law came to visit for a few days. Little Miss Kathryn is naturally the center of everything, with two doting aunties and attentive grandparents. She smiles at familiar faces, grins and laughs at funny faces, and loves to sing and dance! She even looks at pictures when we read board books to her.  It's such a joy being able to spend time with her in between my crazy work shifts. Baby therapy makes everything better (especially when you can return Baby to her parents for food and diaper changes!) Here are a few pictures of the little bundle of placid cheerfulness!
