Christmas Catch Up In March

So for the past couple of months I've been bothered by the fact that I don't post anymore, and I really would like to keep up on my blog a little better this year.
We've had a lot going on so far, but we'll start with covering Christmas.

Christmas was suppose to turn out differently for us. We were suppose to spend Christmas Eve dinner with Amy's family, then spend the night at Kraig and Karen's and then spend Christmas night with Tyler and Gina. But none of that happened.

Christmas Eve morning the boys woke up puking and feverish and horribly lethargically ill. They laid around all day and did nothing. They didn't even talk, and that's when I know it's serious.

By Christmas Eve evening they started to perk up, feel better, open up Christmas PJ's, and we started to make plans to go up to the valley on Christmas day.

After the fun pajama posing, sorry for the red eye, we tucked them all into bed for the night.

And that's when Tom and I started our long night of suffering, taking turns in the bathroom until four in the morning, nonstop. The bug hit us hard.

Bouncing children at seven in the morning was more than I could bare. I managed pictures Christmas morning, but I was still suffering, Tom was recovering much more quickly than me.

Santa left presents!

The older boys got their helicopters that they've been dying for. They were a huge hit and are still alive and working today.

Caleb couldn't get over one toy to move on to all the rest. Very focused.

Talin and his long awaited scooter.

Tom & Monet.

Collin is always super enthused.

Caleb and his planes.

Talin's dream of mass amounts of Legos.

And Collins.

Besides all the puking in our home it was a great Christmas.

The End.

More tomorrow.
