Welcome home daddy!

Daddy's home after a long business trip.  His travel has begun again.   

While he was gone, Laurel got a cardboard castle to color.  This is a belated Christmas present.  It takes up quite a lot of space, but is a lot fun.  

  Laurel has also been helping me a lot in the kitchen.  This morning we made a favorite, Blackberry Corn Muffins.  And I has some special Valentine's Day muffin pan liners to decorate our baked goods. 

 

Rukia is glad Daddy's home too.  Now she can go back to guarding the sunny spots on the carpeting.

The last item I have to share today is a video Laurel and made earlier this week.  I'd intended to send it to Bryan, but got busy and forgot about it.   Here's a sneak peak at life with Rukia, always wanting to snuggle.
