Christmas

I have finally gotten a chance to sit down without a little guy and post an update. We had a wonderful Christmas season this year. We started our Christmas celebration with the Ellett family the Sunday before the actual holiday. We got to see some extended family and had a really good time. The food was great (as usual!) and Liam scored lots of cool gifts including an amazing wood semi truck/trailer that was custom made. Liam is a creature of habit and being out of our routine sort of through off his whole day and made him a fussy, needy boy. That is my excuse for completely forgetting to get out the camera! I couldn't believe it when we got home and I realized I had not taken a single picture....what an airhead! We left for Watsonville on Tuesday, Liam did absolutely great. It took us 8 hours to make a 6 hour drive, but we made it without too much drama (other than a brand new rental car who's engine light came on in the middle of highway 5!) It was great to see my family and watch as they spoiled Liam. Watsonville was freezing! Finn had a great time playing with Toby. He wonders around our house looking completely board, bet he wishes Toby were here. Liam again scored a ton of gifts. I could not believe how packed the car was on the way home, I swear we are going to need a bus if our family gets any bigger. We stayed a week and then had to make the drive back. That drive really sucks but it was worth it for the visit. We spent New Year's Eve at home. I did manage to stay awake until midnight even though Liam was sleeping. We celebrated by eating ice cream in bed, I was sound asleep by twelve twenty! We are party animals!
