NYE at 8pm




Netflix is the greatest, they have all these countdowns to choose from. We had a countdown at 8pm and it was off to bed!

Dec 2017






Bridgette hung with Charlie over winter break.  They went to the zoo, went ice skating, watched movies...Charlie was in heaven



Losing MORE teeth.  Time for a liquid diet.

Trying to fool the tooth fairy with a LEGO



We started basketball.  He's never played before, he's actually pretty good. His team is TERRIBLE. It's like watching the Bad New Buffaloes.  But he has a good time and I think we'll stick with it.








This hilarious painting in the gym of Jesus spiking a volleyball







Well, we have a 2nd child that reacts to penicillin.  I'm so upset, I just wanted one to be able to take normal meds!! It was the exact same time as Charlie, almost to the day.
Remember Charlie's reaction? Heartbreaking. 

On the mend




Jelly!




The obsession begins....

She still tries to pull them out most of the time, but we are getting her used to pigtails. They look so cute and tame her wild hair.




We did a bath together once, I think we're good forever.  The age difference is just too wide.  Maggie loved it!

By the time the actual Christmas rolls around, we've been celebrating for a while. Christmas morning we just do Santa. So usually one of the larger gifts and their stockings.  It's so nice to be done by Christmas - no more travelling, we can just be together.

Baby Yoda s& Chewy - her brother was immediately jealous.










I think she liked it







Good dog....poor Fletcher

Christmas Eve Mass at St. Annes

Ruthanne, Will, & Charlie







Christmas eve mass is always beautiful chaos. We don't really have a service, we have an unscripted pageant and Meg reads a Christmas book to all the kids. I love my St. Anne's family
