Christmas Time

I know I have been so bad about updating our blog lately. One of my New Years resolutions will be to post more frequently. But here is a brief update on whats been going on here in the last month...

We went to California for a week for Thanksgiving and had lots of fun with our family! The children were very sick but we all survived.

We have had lots of snow and below freezing temperatures.

We hosted a Thanksgiving at our house this past weekend for our Colorado family.

Ryder is still doing swim class and loving it. He is also enrolled in a little Elf art program that started last Friday and also has class this Friday. It's a 2 hour, drop off class...his first one ever! They read books and make 3 gifts in each class for their loved ones. He had a great time last week and cant wait to go back this Friday. I love that he is so social and doesn't care at all when I leave. It was harder for me to leave him last week, than it was for him to be left.

Rylie is getting her 5th tooth and just started clapping a couple days ago. Also, she just started walking in her walker. She has had the walker for a few months, but never moved much in it. But this weekend she started moving all by herself.

Christmas shopping has commenced and is almost finished.

We are all caught up on Christmas wrapping and decorating. Have I mentioned how much I love this time of year. With all the snow we've had it makes it look so festive (just what Ive always dreamed of).

Right now the kids are napping, I have the Christmas music on, and I'm baking some peanut blossom cookies. Yum!

I think that sums it up for right now. Talk to you soon! Have a very happy Holiday Season.
