Tuesday, December 20 (day 173/365)

Today was the first night of Hanukkah.  We want to make sure Phoebe experiences all of her religious backgrounds (Bears AND Lions) so we got a menorah for the first time since we've been married.  We found a cool LED menorah made of recycled circuit board which seemed just about perfect for our family.  Here Phoebe is saying the blessings and lighting the first candle with her daddy.

This flimsy thing is supposed to last eight days?!  Baby accepts that challenge.
