Merry merry

Hope your Christmas was merry.  Ours was.  How can it not be with three little munchkins in the mix?  Santa arrived with items on the list but neglected to include a Wall-E robot, which thankfully seems to be forgotten.

We have a new pet named Spike Jr.  It's a dinosaur that roars and talks and apparently is being coddled as the new family pet.  He likes fruit snacks so I'm told.

Spencer is playing himself silly on  his new slide.  Santa is so wise.

Caroline is basking in formula glory and her new little Tabbie doll from G-ma.

I've learned that Matthew looks like a doll in man style pj's and slippers, Spence is not into wrapping paper, Caroline responds to excitement and will nap only in her own bassinet and that sometimes it's not all that important to get everything "done".

I've also learned that Corbin's two married nieces are both expecting which makes me feel even older but gives my kids someone to play with.

And most importantly, we've learned to be so thankful for what we have and for the baby Jesus who taught us how to love.
