Christmas!

I'm sure you all are stalking my blog in anticipation of countless Christmas pictures of the kids on Christmas morning. Well, you'll have to wait until January 1st. Sure, we opened a few presents on Christmas morning, but with Drew being gone until the end of the month, we decided it was best to open family gifts on Christmas morning, and then gifts from Santa on the 1st :)

My dad is out until the 31st so he got to spend Christmas morning with me and the kids. Vang opened up a bunch of clothes from her nana (my mom) and her Uncle Steve and Aunt Nicole (my brother and my sister in law), and she also gota Vtech toy from Deb at Daycare. We opened up a kid scrapbook and stickers from MomMom (Drews mom), and Tradd got a steering wheel toy from my dad and a Lion ride on toy from MomMom and PopPop. We saved the rest of the gifts for January 1st.

Stay tuned!

UPDATES!

Im horrible at updating recently. My excuse is that Drew is gone for the month to do his ADT (Active Duty Training) in Georgia, so I am at home with the kids by myself. My day is like this: wake up, get both kids ready for school, out the door by 7:25, at daycare by 7:30, have to be 20 miles away by 8am for work, work until 4:40, leave to pick the kids up by 5, baths, dinner, bottles, clean, and by that time its 9:00 and I havent had a second to breathe. I guess thats why Im only TEN pounds away from my pre-preg weight, because im ALWAYS on the run.

Here's a rundown of what has happened this month:

Purchased our 1st NEW CAR (Volvo XC90) on December 5th.
Drew took his national boards on December 8th
Drew left December 9th for Savanna GA until the 30th of this month.
Our 4 year wedding anniversary was on December 17th
December 18th we got an email from the Army saying we had to REDO our station list
December 24th my dad comes out until the 31st
December 24th Tradd is SIX months old
Drew comes home on the 30th
Celebrating "Christmas" as a family on january 1st.

Tradd is now: sleeping 10 hours a night
ZOEY is sleeping in Evangelines room
Tradd is on his hands and knees rocking back and forth, crawling soon?
Tradd can now sit unassisted for a short period of time.

I have SO many pictures I need to add here. I will do that, TONIGHT. I mean, TONS.

Also, I have been thinking of ideas of what to do when i become a SAHM mom and I have millions and millions of great ideas, and thanks to the NEW SEWING machine drew grandparents got me (YAY! THANKS!) I can finally start my crafts!

Ok, thats all for now! WHEW!
