Hi! This is my first visit to your blog. We have so much in common!! My "specialty" is cinnamon rolls, and my husband also got maple syrup for Christmas. And more than that too, with the crafty WAHM stuff of course. Your little one is so cute and your family photos really are heartwarming. I love what you say about your "cocoon" over on the right side of your blog--how heavenly! We strive to make our family life a haven, too.
