A Very Smug Mummy Christmas to You

Darlings, that time has come when the Pretty goes into hibernation for one week so that I can tend to some other festive holiday projects (code for: somehow learn to cook, clean, and entertain before our Christmas houseguests arrive. And buy presents for that one person I keep forgetting. Not you, of course it isn't you, obvs. Pinky swear. Or is it, I can't remember .  . . gaaaaah.).

In the meantime, I leave you with our 2011 holiday card, replete with plenty of wee CEO and self-satisfied looks of Smug Mummyness both front & back:

(This isn't a paid plug, merely a happy customer endorsement): Three cheers to Minted for quick & excellent service.

A very merry whatever it is you celebrate. I'll be back much, much sooner than you had hoped with more holiday photos and stories than you or that malevolent Elf on the Shelf ever dreamed possible.
