Knocked out by nesting

Maybe it was all the Sarah's House episodes I watched while laid up last weekend, but I ended the week with a fierce need to nest. PapaBear and I had just one major social commitment on Saturday night and that left plenty of time to hit a few household projects out of the park:

1. Final coat of paint on the door to the baby's room, a project that we began in warm weather
2. Third round of Christmas baking, including another hundred peanut butter balls, a rather labour-intensive Paton family classic
3. Gingerbread houses for the neighbour's boys
4. Two double batches of soup and a mac and cheese casserole
5. Christmas cards (with apologies for my being so late...hopefully yours will reach you before December 25th)

Unfortunately, all that time on my feet left me completely flattened. I took 2 naps on Saturday and an extra long one today. While PapaBear was out clearing snow, I was chilling, horizontal and warm under our duvet.

Fingers crossed that a snow day tomorrow lets me continue the fun.
