Christmas 2011

What a wonderful year!  Christmas was amazing but I didn't get many pictures because I was enjoying myself too much!  After the bills for the baby came rolling in, my husband and I decided to not get anything for each other this year and just enjoy the season.  Well he was a stinker and got me something anyway, but I am definitely not giving it back, an hour massage from a real masseuse!  We were very blessed with beautiful gifts from our parents, and once again our children were spoiled and loved this Christmas!

I got a chance to think about my three treasures this Christmas, really that was all I needed!  Everyone is healthy and happy!

Jack:

I love my little guy so much!  Life has not been easy for him or us since he was born!  With his weird gastrointestinal prolems and other little delays, we have been to lots of different doctors and specialists in his little life!  However, I think we have finally found the right balance for him and he sleeps through the night most nights!  He started preschool at Murray this year and has fantastic teachers!  His speech therapist has helped him make such great progress and oh how I love to hear him talk!  He sings me cute little songs and will hug and kiss his sisters!  He has huge blue eyes that just take my breathe away!  He loves Cars and anything with Mater and McQueen on them!  I got to rock him in the rocking chair last night and I almost cried it felt so good.  He is getting busier everyday and loves to be independent, but every once in a while I will get a moment with him where we just cuddle!  I love you Jack and will continue to work so hard for you so you can make as much progress possible!

Audrey Mae:

My little Audrey Mae makes me feel every emotion every day!  She knows how to make you smile and also knows every button to push to drive you crazy!  She is currently struggling with middle child syndrome and I have to remind myself all the time to take a moment to be with just her!  Audrey wakes up talking, talks all day, and falls asleep talking!  She loves to bug Jack and vice versa!  She lives for food and will often tell me she is "hungee" even after she has eaten a big meal!  She loves her little sister most of the time and will hug and kiss her.  Audrey is sweet to her family and will kiss and hug anyone if they act like they are sad in the least degree!  She loves pink and princesses and is such a girl!  I never thought I would have such a girly girl and I can already tell she is going to be a challenge as a teenager!  I love you Audrey Mae!

Kate:

  



Kate has the sweetest spirit!  I can tell already she is going to be a peacemaker!  She loves to nurse and would do it every ten minutes if I let her.  Kate is a cuddler and will fall asleep on me chest daily.  She is only two months old but it feels like she has been with us for much longer than that!  She is only waking up 1-2 times a night now, which makes me very happy since I am back at work!  She is a champ at taking a bottle too!  I look forward to getting to know her more and find out what her personality really is!  I love you so much Baby Kate!

My family is my life and the reason I go to work is just to help and support them!  I love them all so much!  My husband is also the best partner and support!  He works so hard to provide for our little family and works with me towards one day having a "real" house with a backyard!

Merry Christmas to everyone and here's to a fun eventful new year!
