Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas Everyone!!   We had such a nice christmas!!  It was a very successful christmas for the kids.  I think they got everything that they asked for.  WOW that Santa is awesome!!!  Logan got a battleship game, clothes, a Bakugon playing field, binoculars, a moon to hang in his room from dad, a popcorn bucket with m&ms from me, and of course, his X -box 360.  He was so happy he got all his things he wished for.  Kaitlyn took a long time opening her presents.  She was so excited about the candy that Santa left in her stocking.  We told her that Christmas is the only day of the year that you can have candy for breakfast!!  She got clothes, a camera, a puppy that swims in the bathtub, a kitchen, a stoller for all her babies from mommy, a dora doll, and a laughtop computer from daddy.  Santa also put big girl underwear in her stocking!!  I think Santa thinks that she is getting close to potty training!!!!!!!  I am not going to go into all the things that we got form grandparents and family, we could be here for a long time.  We had a nice time just the four of us.  It was a relaxing day where we all just hung out in our PJ and played with the new toys!!!
I hope everyone had  a great Christmas!!

Don't we look oh so nice.  "Kaitlyn, close your legs"

Christmas Celebration!!

This past Saturday night we had a nice Christmas with my parents.  It was just the 6 of us and the kids had a great time opening presents from grandma and grandpa.  Logan got his DS game that he has wanted since the summer and Kaitlyn got a baby that she fed, and put to bed many times last night (what a good mommy- i wonder where she gets that from?)
We did our normal dinner with snack food such as salmon, cheese and crackers, BBQ winners, lots of homemade candy and cookies and it would not be a party with out the drinks!!!  It was so relaxing and fun.  Those are the parties that we like, just relaxing and spending time with the ones you love!
Merry Christmas Everyone!!

Ouch

Well, it has been one heck of a week.  Rob had minor surgery on Tuesday.  He has not been feeling good for the past 3 weeks, and then last THursday, woke up in  a lot of pain He finally went to the doctor on TUesday and they could not tell what was wrong so they set him up for exploratory surgery.  He went in and they found an abscess that they cut open and drained.  He is home and in  a lot of pain.  Thank god it was nothing too serious.
That same day, Logan's school called and said he was throwing up.  So I was put in a pickle.  I had a sick child and a husband that I needed to take in for surgery.  THank goodness for my dad, who took the afternoon off to watch Logan.  Now I am stuck taking care of Rob,which is not THAT bad, but it sure makes for a long day.  
At least we can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Kaitlyn's first hair cut

Well, I finally did it, I went and got Kaitlyn's haircut.  She is no longer the survey girl in town.  I went to my hair stylist and she did such a great job with getting Kaitlyn to sit and keep her occupied.  Kaitlyn got her bangs trimmed and her back and sides shaped up.  This was a big step for mommy.  I did not want to cut it, but I knew I needed to.  Doesn't she look pretty?

Thanksgiving

Now that we are home from our traveling over the Holiday weekend, I can let everyone know what a nice Thanksgiving we had.  We went to Iowa to spend the day with Rob's Mom Sue.  I cooked a good (if I do say so myself) thanksgiving meal, with the help of my 2 sidekicks, Logan and Kaitlyn.  They helped make the pumpkin pie, which I think was the best thing at the table.  Logan had us all have hats to celebrate Thanksgiving, and we had a lot of fun making them.   I hope everyone had as great of a Thanksgiving as we did.
