The Holidays

We had a wonderful Christmas. Once again we began our celebration at Big Cedar. The kids had a super fun time. That place is magic during the holidays. Actually, all the adults enjoyed themselves as well. Aniston got sick during the night on our last night there, so she was a little puny for all the celebrations. We celebrated with Greg's family on Christmas Eve. We celebrated with my parents on Christmas Day.

Luke is doing great in school. He is looking forward to baseball starting. Actually, he has (I think) decided to skip playing soccer. It is hard for a few weeks when it overlaps baseball games. And, 2 practices a week while still in school is hard as well. I think the biggest reason is that he can't participate in a school sponsored basketball in the Fall. He is also wanting to play Flag Football and maybe Fall Baseball. At some point they have to decide. We are fine with his decision.

Aniston is potty trained. Well as of right now not totally #2 trained... but hopefully very very soon. Two days after Christmas she said she would use her potty and wear panties and she did. The previous two attempts at "potty camp" were ruthless. They left her and her Mommy very frustrated. She is talking so much more and learning new things everyday. She loves going to pick up Luke from school and see the kids when we visit. She has matured a whole lot in the last couple months.

Jemma- is big about 35 lbs right now and she continues to be wild and pupply like. She is great fun and the kids love her. We had snow last week and she loved playing in it with the kids. I am so glad we have her to brighten our days!

Luke turned 7 on Christmas and that is just unreal. Time sure does fly by and too quickly. Aniston was 2.5 on the 11th of Jan. They are lots of work and extremely frustrating at times. But I could not image life without either of them!

Happy 2011 everyone!
