What Happened in December

I am so sorry Blog! I have been so neglectful of you! I have had not one, but several reasons for my neglect. It does not help the fact that I have failed to record the events of our lives for almost a month now! I will do better this year!!!! I promise! {:sniff:}{:sniff:}

Now that that is behind me, maybe I can be a better blogger this year!

I was wondering the other day what happened to the month of December?! I am not sure, because it flew by so fast that I almost missed it!

Here are some of the highlights of December since my last post:

1. Winnie has proven to be a sweetheart, but a very time consuming part of our life! It is like having a baby all over again, except I can leave her for a couple of hours at a time if I have to go somewhere!

2. We have painted a few walls in our little house! Alan was here a week and a half changing the way we viewed several rooms! Here are the two colors of the girls room! I was not really excited about the Caribbean Cool blue color that K. wanted as an accent wall, but it turned out nice in the end! Pictures will be posted as soon as we are finished decorating!

3. The kids have taken to the trees! T'K even got in on this little excursion under very heavy supervision!!!!!

4. Christmas came and went in a hurry! I think there was so much going on I missed the anticipation of the whole blessed event! WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN!!!!! Below is one of my favorite Christmas photos!

We celebrated Christmas at our house this year! It was so nice not to have to run everywhere celebrating with each family group! Next year I think I would like to leave the day after Christmas on a vacation and just spend time alone with my family!


5. After the older siblings had to have a pair of Conv*rse tinnies, Kensli decided she needed some with pink sparkles! We couldn't find any her size that were Conv*rse, but we did find this D*llard's brand that were exactly what she wanted! She wears them everywhere with everything!!!!

6. Toby became very sick the day after Christmas with some sort of kidney infection! He is much better now and will go back for tests to make sure all is OK on the 12th.

7. Granny was in the hospital due to dehydration! She is much better now and out of the hospital! Thank you, Jesus!

All in all, we had a wonderful Christmas! The new year is already shaping up to be quiet an interesting one! Can't wait to see what God has in store!
