I'm still here....

my excuses?....
1) Too busy
2) Too tired
3) Too sick
4) Too much to catch up on.......
Okay, I'm finally taking the plunge. The kids are napping and I should start folding the endless heap of laundry so we don't go into yet another week living out of the clean laundry still in the baskets----BUT----I decided to first try and blog something instead of again talking myself out of it. Where do I begin?
I'll try to be brief so it doesn't get long winded.
Christmas was great. Both families came to us this year which was amazing. We still kept somewhat of a schedule and did so many fun things. It didn't break us financially and we didn't have to travel. Some of the highlights.....
Ice skating for the first time.

Watching movies with Grandma Lynn and Papa Tony.Image

There were many more things that we did and enjoyed together. It takes so long to download pics so I'm going to stop there.

As far as the pregnancy, I think I am finally getting past the sick stage. The boys tell me the baby is getting bigger. We find out the sex at the end of February. Okay, the laundry is haunting me now......I'll try harder to keep this thing updated. :)
