The baby’s non-sleeping is kicking my butt so we’ll continue our tour of the pyramids tomorrow. So far this Christmas day I dragged myself to breakfast and then baby and I went back to bed for a 4 hour nap (during which she woke up 3 times, but at least she would nurse and go back to sleep). It’s 3:00 pm and I’m still in my pjs.

Meanwhile, SuperDad made breakfast and took the boys on a hike out in the desert. Merry Christmas to me!

***I can’t take credit for the Santa pancake idea. A friend of mine posted a photo of her Santa pancakes on facebook and I knew the boys would love it. It’s cherry pie filling for the hat and nose, chocolate chips for the eyes, and whipped cream for the hat and beard. Our pancakes are made with whole wheat flour, giving them a very “Egyptian Santa” appearance that wasn’t intentional, but very fitting.
