Christmas Update!





Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!! I know a little late :0). I have been working frequently since the 23rd of December and finally get a week off so I thought I'd update. We stayed home Christmas day which was a change from spending Christmas with my mom and dad. We had a pretty relaxed day opening gifts and playing with the kids. We had steak and baked potatoes with salad for dinner. I know a little odd but good. I had to work Christmas night so really I just wanted to relax with Tob and the kids instead of slaving over turkey, stuffing, etc, etc, etc for the day. The majority of the afternoon the kids spent making Christmas/get well cards for the patients at the hospital. We had 7 patients on the floor that night and before work the kids and I and Myah took the cards up and delivered them. The kids enjoyed themselves and it made the patients day. They were pretty cute.
The kids were sick pretty much their whole 9 days off with fever, cough, and nasal congestion. They started back to school yesterday and were pretty bummed they couldn't run wild with the neighbor kids during the break, but played very well together instead. Anyway hope everyone had a good Christmas! I can't believe that it is already 2008.

Cute, cute, cute pics. Alexyss' dress still fits her well! The green striped hat, etc. perfectly match the green striped sweater I bought for Olivia. I absolutely loved the colors and couldn't resist.

I was thinking about you today. Did you take Dakota in as planned? If so, I know it must be terribly painful for you and I wish I could make it better. He'll definitely be better off. He sounds like he was in a lot of pain.

Love you!!!

that's sad that the kids were sick on their break! That's not as fun! Oh-well, it still sounds like you had a pretty good little break
