A festive morning

Pie for breakfast? Why not! It's the holidays, after all.
(But just FYI--she did eat a real breakfast first.)

Many thanks to Aunt Marcia & Uncle Bob for this German Advent calendar! Ellie loved the chocolate.

This year we're starting a new Advent tradition: For each day in December, we've printed out a special holiday activity for Ellie to do. Some are small (like today's activity), but some are big, like making a donation at her favorite zoo. We hope to continue this tradition each year during Advent.

Ellie finds out her activity for the day...

...eating lebkuchen! She really enjoyed her piece.
