Yes I'm Still Here!



























Cam and Trin in serious dinner conversation.


Not sure why I haven't posted anything in so long. I guess it was a busy holiday season.

We had such a good Christmas this year. I loved spending time with our families and having Wayne off work for 3 days. It was so nice to have the magic back since Camden is at the perfect age. Wayne's family had a Christmas party where Santa Clause came and Camden got a helicopter. The following weekend Wayne and I told Camden that we had to go Christmas shopping so that we could get him some presents. Camden told us that he already got a present from Santa so we asked him if he wanted some more. Camden sweetly replied, "No, I'm okay". It's probably the only year we will hear that but it was so dang cute.
Teige started crawling Christmas Day! He does this mini crawl thing where he barely moves his knees so he doesn't get too far too fast yet. It was a task that he has been working on for weeks and he seems a lot happier now that he has finally figured it out.

Even though I love Christmas, most years I am happy when it goes so that life can get back to normal. But, for some reason it was different this year and I wasn't quite ready for the celebrations and anticipation to end. Or maybe it's because I can't use the "I'm going to call Santa" excuse anymore. Whoever thought of that is so smart!

Okay so a little negative side...........I cannot believe that we are approaching the New Year already. I hate how the older you get the faster the years go by! I hate that our babies have to grow up so fast. And I hate that I was born in 1980 and it's almost 2010 so I am going to be how old this year.......you do the math! Seriously, where did time go. I just remind myself to love every single day and hug and hold and play with my children as much as they will let me. In ten years, my oldest could have babies of her own and I will be begging my boys to give me hugs.
