Home again, home again...

Well, after many days and nights spent at my parent's house for the holidays we are finally home and it feels strange to be back into some what of a normal home life. Christmas was good. Here is a BRIEF run down of it all...

Cambree lost her 1st top tooth on the 18th and was so excited to go to school on Friday to get on the "tooth chart"...and, wouldn't you know it...school was cancelled. This happened to her in the spring too. She lost her tooth on the very last day of school after it was let out for summer vacation. So, hopefully she can still get on the tooth chart when they go back to school. She lost her other top tooth on Christmas night. So, the tooth fairy came for a visit the night after Santa and she was thrilled. Her goal was to have them both come on Christmas Eve, but this was just as good.

We got a Wii for Christmas and Brinlee is a PRO bowler! She gets more strikes than anyone I know. She loves it and we all have a lot of fun playing it. (I will try to take a picture of her playing soon!)
Aidan was such a joy the whole trip...NOT! Okay, he really wasn't terrible. He learned how to go down stairs which was nice--still needs some practice though. He also thought that he needed to wake up in the middle of the night EVERY night, which was just super for all of us. I wonder if this new drinking habit he has is the reason behind it all...Mtn. Dew anyone?

We had a really fun trip and wonderful Christmas/New Year and my kids loved every minute. They are ready for school to start again so that is good. It will be nice to have some routine back in our lives...
