Merry Christmas about 3 weeks late!

It's been a busy holiday season! So busy, that I haven't had time to update our blog as I would like! I will do my best to catch you up!


On Christmas Eve, I took Caroline to the Urgent Care Center since she was complaining about her ears and throat hurting. Thankfully, I did not blow her off and took her to the doctor. She did not have a high temperature, so I was a little hesitant that it was anything to worry about. On the way there, she did not take up my offer on bubble gum. BIG red flag there! That girl never turns down gum! That's when I really believe that she was hurting! After a wrestling match with the nurse and the strep test, Caroline came back positive. Luckily, it was right at 24 hours before we were going to Brooke & Michael's for Christmas so she would be non-contagious by then!

Cooper ripping open presents
Hot Wheels were a big hit this year (next to Thomas, of course!)

After we openeds presents at our house, we drove to Brooke & Michael's to celebrate with the Bliss/Chamberlain family to open our presents between the family.
Caroline waiting to start the mad dash!
Brady really liked his Thomas boots! (Cooper loved his, too!)
Cooper got Spencer! Thanks Gram and Grand-Bob!
Best Buddies
Guess who got an American Girl doll!!!
Caroline got a new, bigger desk from Mommy & Daddy!
The day after Christmas, Caroline, Cooper, myself, Mary-Kate and her parents went to see "Alvin & The Chipmunks - The Squeakuel". (Very cute!)
