Poor Baby Girl & December Fun Catch-Up!

Our sweet baby girl is sick. Well, actually the whole house is sick, but Audrey wins for the sickest. Luke has a double ear infection, plus he is getting molars and Audrey was diagnosed with bronchiolitis yesterday. Luke has also decided he is scared of the dark and is insisting that he sleep with the light on, and wakes up randomly throughout the night screaming. Add all these factors together, plus a sick momma and you get an EXHAUSTED family! I will have to say that these past 5ish days have been the hardest and most tiring of my entire mommy career, but I am happy to say that we are getting to the other side. A huge blessing in all of this, is that Brian has the next two weeks off and has been around the entire time. Don't know what I would have done without him home! Sweet Audrey had to start breathing treatments yesterday, and has been taking them like a champ. I am happy to say that she is doing much better today. Check out our little love in action, puppy dog mask and all!

Ok, now for picture overload. Here is what we have been up to in December. A little "Elf On The Shelf" action. His name is "Oval". Yes, you read right. Luke named him, and coincidentally the shape of the month at school was an oval. ;)

A visit from Great Grandma Diane and her friend, Janice.

A fun visit from Benjamin. Luke and Benjamin loved playing in the gingerbread house that Tula got Luke.

Hanging out in matching PJs. I guess Luke is teaching him how to lick the floor. hmmm... Poor Benjamin must have been crying because he knew this would happen the next day...

His first big boo boo!

And yes, it happened on my watch. Whoops!

Luke also got in some PJ time with his sister.

We made our first turkey ever! It actually turned out great. =)

Luke made a gingerbread house with Tula, aka a gingerbread wall. Apparently, the big bad wolf "huffed and puffed and blew the house down". =)

Audrey took a few naps.

And got picked up by her big brother. Yes, he is holding her without any help.

Luke had fun wearing Daddy's robe.

And enjoyed some fun at a cool new park. Please note the bloody lip. This happened within 2 minutes of our arrival. That boy!

Well that pretty much sums it up!
