Hello? *knock knock* Anyone here? *brushing aside the cobwebs* Wow. Has it really been a month since I posted? Does it make any difference that I have been super busy? Who knew that getting a puppy would be like having a newborn? Well, a newborn that nips their older siblings and poops and pees on the floor. At the end of the day I am so exhausted that I just veg...well if I make it to the end of the day. Lately it seems I fall asleep before Brady's story to Teigue and Stella is over.
A new year, new focus. I plan on resuming the daily blog entries. I know that you ahem Joanie just want to see daily pictures of the kids- so I promise. I promise I will do my best. Until then, here are some pictures from December.
We started the month out with a daily visit from our favorite elf, Ollio. The kids figured that at the end of a long day of watching them, he may be too tired to head on back to the North Pole. This may have came to them because a few times Ollio was in the same space that he was when they woke up as when they went to sleep. They figured he was just exhausted and fell asleep. Teigue then decided that every night he would build Ollio a huge tower out of his blocks for him to sleep in. We also made Jayno's dollhouse a nice cozy spot. Thankfully Ollio agreed with the kids and stayed the night a few times.
One night Teigue needed to sleep on the floor so he could sleep next to Ollio.What else happened in December? Hmmm...Oh yeah, Jayno turned 3! My favorite little lady in the whole wide world had a birthday! She was greeted in the morning by the most glorious pink and purple sunrise. Sunrise you say? Yes, sunrise. Little Billy had a habit of waking everyone up at 6am. Thankfully we have stopped that and now just Brady or I get up. Anyway...the sunrise...
We then headed to our favorite Trolley Park with our favorite Teentz and played and played and played.
We also enjoyed some tasty pink and purple cupcakes.On the few days that it wasn't raining, we headed to the beach during the day...
And to Jungle Bells at the zoo at night.
We had such a wonderful month, even though it rained most days making us miss out on a few of our traditions- Christmas lights at the Del, nightly zoo visits, driving around looking at lights. We started some new traditions, had some new friends over for Christmas Eve, and part of our San Diego family over for the traditional pot pie dinner. Until next year December.
