Nothing too terribly exciting, but Bronwen's Mimi was complaining that I wasn't updating the blog enough. I tried to explain that we have been terribly busy, but I realized how lame of an excuse that was. So here she is--I now present, Bronwen at the end of lunch time!
Just some clarification:
When I ask her about the stamp, she says, "Dance!" because that is what she did at music today--amid other things. Also at the beginning of the video--she is actually the one who pressed the button on the camera, so that is why it is kind of an odd start.

New Year's Gardening
New Year's day was a little chilly, so we decided it was the perfect time to embark upon a long-neglected project: our garden. We just wanted to put down a layer of newspaper and pine straw because weeds were overtaking everything. Bronwen was so excited, she did a little dance. (TJ was wearing matching warm-up pants, but his didn't have a pink stripe)Here is the back view:
Here, Bronwen examined a gardenia in need of pruning:
She got the clippers from me, but they were locked the whole time, I promise. 
Finally looking at the camera:
Please ignore how tired I look. I was. The point of this picture is the rainbow that we saw. It was really beautiful but hard to capture on film.

Time Flies
Once again, side-by-side comparison of 2007 and 2008. I never would have guessed last year that she would have a head full of curls!
Christmas Morning
The first gift Bronwen opened was actually on the Saturday before when we went to Leslie and Aaron's for their tacky Christmas party. Thanks for the awesome zoo, Leslie!
Lucy, decked out in her own Santa suit, happily assisted.
Bronwen's main Christmas gift, thanks to Santa Aunt Jana and Santa Mimi was a Little Tikes Sizzle n' Serve kitchen. Here is the Christmas Eve assembly:
Completed product:
All the gifts under the tree:
Bronwen didn't know what to make of her kitchen at first. Luckily, Mimi showed her how to play, and she didn't even want to take a break for "real" breakfast!

Zoo!
The Tuesday before Christmas was supposed to be a nice, toasty 65 degrees, so we decided to make a trip to the BR Zoo. It was actually quite chilly in the morning, but the animals were still out, and we had a nice time walking around.
T.J. was excited to see the flamingos, and the giraffe was happy to stick his tongue out at us.
Bronwen was just happy to have some PB crackers.
Bronwen started to get a little tired as we were nearing the end, but a playground helped to boost her spirits. Hmm...seems like Mimi had a good time too.
More Christmas holiday fun forthcoming!

Busy Times!
We have been super-busy over here at the St.R. abode. So much so that I just haven't had time to upload anything new! Part of that does stem from the fact that I have great pics of Bronwen that I used on our Christmas card, and I am waiting to send them out (today) before uploading them here.
Some of the things we've been doing since the snow melted:
Playing with cousins:
Decorating the driveway:
Digging in the dirt:
Staying warm and cozy:
Smelling the flowers:
Sliding:
Playing with blocks:
We also had a nice visit from Chee Chee (see Babsy's 101 blog for pics).
I will try to update more regularly!
Hope everyone has a great Christmas--Bronwen's Mimi and Dja Dja (my parents) are coming in Sunday, so we might be MIA because of that. Hopefully I can keep a running pictorial update of our fun activities!
