Christmas 2017



On Christmas Eve, the tree was lit, presents out....

Stockings hung with care.

And then it was Christmas morning!! Kevin and I waited until 8:30 and then woke up the kids! Ha!




After presents, sticky buns, and trying out all the gifts, we headed to my parents for the rest of Christmas Day. Uncle Bill had an experiment for the kids: turning pennies gold! They loved it :)



My other pictures at my parents are chaotic! Lots of kids and lots of presents.  We had a fun day! The rest of the week was spent at home. We took the kid roller skating one day, but the rest of the time was low-key!

On Friday we drove out to Kevin's parents house and exchanged gifts that evening.


On Saturday, it snowed! The kids are watching Grandpa and Dad shovel.



The Tiptons came over and we had a fun time with them. I think Uncle Bob liked his gift :)


Do you see an addition in this family photo? Mark and JungMin got a dog right before Christmas.  

  He added fun to our celebrations :)  The kids loved him!


Off to Carlisle to celebrate New Years.


Mimi got the kids just what they wanted - TOYS! :)




School started back up with a 2-hour delay on Tuesday! It was a full week of family time, which was great.

Wedding!

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Martin! :) We attended Natalie and Dallas' wedding on Saturday and had a lovely time. We know both the bride and groom from college....and just happen to be great friends with the bride's parents as well (Hi Bill and Doreen!). Here is the new couple - Natalie looked beautiful, and Dallas looked pretty good too ;) Here I am with the bride - check out her BLUE shoes! No wedding is complete without a little dancing and singing....particularly to Livin on a Prayer....Steve, Jeff, and Kevin sang at the top of their lungs and performed an air guitar solo: even the bride joined in: We had a great time! I'm thinking of the honeymooners.....kind of wishing I was on a tropical island somewhere too! :)

34 Weeks

34 weeks and my belly button has popped out :)  haha!  I'm still feeling a lot of movement and today my doctor said everything was great.  Here's some info on our "Baby Brother", as I refer to this little guy with Chloe and April: Your baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds ( about the size of a cantaloupe ) and is almost 18 inches long. His fat layers — which will help regulate his body temperature once he's born — are filling him out, making him rounder. His skin is also smoother than ever. His central nervous system is maturing and his lungs are continuing to mature as well. If you've been nervous about preterm labor , you'll be happy to know that babies born between 34 and 37 weeks who have no other health problems generally do fine. They may need a short stay in the neonatal nursery and may have a few short-term health issues, but in the long run, they usually do as well as full-term babies.
