short, sweet, to-the-point, and no pictures

Chip arrived here on Christmas Eve. There was more than one of us that cried, we were all so happy to see him!

There are pictures to come, as well as a report on Alice's newest doings (namely, Pulling Up and Real True Hands and Knees Crawling and Clapping). But right now we're doing our best to enjoy these precious few days together as a family before the three of us jump in the car to do the long trek home.
