Christmas (mixed in with croup, flu and more croup!)


We had a great Christmas this year and got to spend it with both our families. Ella really got into it this year, so that was so fun to see. The day itself was great, but the days following...not so great. Gage got the croup really bad the day after and is actually STILL recovering. About 5 days into his sickness, I got the flu. The very next day after, Ella got the croup. So pretty much the whole Christmas break we were holed up in our house. We missed all the family get-togethers and our New Years party...but such is life with kids, I guess! At least they are finally starting to feel better. I feel like screaming for a "truce" or something right now...I think I need some peace and quiet in order for me not to lose my mind:)



My kids modeling my favorite Christmas present...the cheetah chair!




Now, enjoy all of our VERY blurry Christmas picures from our lovely camera. I should have asked Santa for a new one, but I decided I wanted new shoes instead...and a purse...and a cheetah chair:)















Grandma got him a bumbo, but forgot to look on the box and see what color it is:)



Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and will have a happy new year!
