Heart Check Up!!

Michael was born with two holes in his heart, he had checkups after checkups. The doctor told me that the holes were closed up and that was when he was almost two years old. Well a couple of times, he had come to me with his heart racing and a couple of times his lips were blue. Long story short, Michael had a recent checkup and his heart is perfect. Awesome, no more worries!! Just look at that face!! Too Cute!

Dentist Visit!!

Matthew and Nicholas who both wear braces always go to the dentist every three months. Matt, who scrubs his teeth until his arm falls off, has no cavities. Nicholas who I have to beg and bribe to brush his teeth, also had no cavities. LOVE IT!! He has since took a new approach to brushing and has been doing a really nice job!!

New Year's Eve!!!!!!!!

New Year's Eve was just as relaxing. We went to the store and got a whole bunch of nothing good for you, just tasty goodies. We all stayed up and watched movies and then watched the ball drop and then we dropped....... but of course the husband had to get up at the crack of dawn and go eat breakfast at IHOP!!! YUMMY!!!

CHRISTMAS DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is a picture of my senior elf in charge of wrapping a last minute item that needed to be wrapped, also some pictures of the tree with gifts before the storm hit !!!!!!!!!!!
Now here is the aftermath of the little monsters wripping up the wrapping paper.To watch this was awesome to see the look ontheir little faces that santa really listened and brought them what they really wanted!!!! Here are pictures of the kids with their favorite presents.

After all the gifts were opened, we ate breakfast. Then Jenna and I made X-mas dinner. We had ham, taters, greenbeans, corn, cranberry, yams, rolls, gravey, and numerous desserts. We made brownie bites, cookies, and cornbread. The day was filled with relaxation and it felt good for once to have nothing to do. The kids enjoyed playing with all their goodies that Santa brought them. I hope everyone else had a wonderful holiday!!!!!

SNOWDAY!!!

Here is the kids playing in the snow on their first big snowfall of the year!! The kids couldn't wait for it!!! Of course it took most of the morning to find all the gloves and scarves and hats and lets not forget the stinken snowboots that took me about an hour to find for them to just stay outside 10 minutes...... oh well at least they had a fun snowday!!!!!!!!!!!

Christmas Eve

We had a great Christmas Eve!! We just stayed home and ate all day and night!! We sat down and made edible x-mas trees. Take a peak at those trees aren't they sweet!! David the oldest of the boys said " oh no mom I will just help Zoey with hers!!!!!" He ended up really making "zoey's" tree really pretty.
