back from the dead...

Ok so I am back to this whole blog thing...I put it on hold because our life had fallen off a cliff somehow, but we are back and doing well and if I do not document it we will lose it...

Here are my top 5 moments of this weekend:

Random order of course...

1. Seeing Katie in her first performance...when did she grow up? I won't worry she is only 3, plenty of performances left.

2. Hearing Max tell a knock knock joke to completion at the age of 29 months

3. Making Christmas cookies with my mom and the kids

4. Seeing Max clap in delight that his sister was on the stage Saturday night

5. Seeing the kids delight in Christmas lights as we drove around town

6. I know I said 5, but I am fickle....the most hilarious moment of the weekend was late Saturday night, early Sunday morning. Max had woken up coughing and I had taken him in my room to be with Billy while I got him some water. He was crying pretty loudly and when I returned I cuddled him close. It was too late though, he had woken up his sister. Katie, sleepily, wandered into our room, and not wanting to stir Max I carefully and seamlessly glided her into the middle of our bed. A minute later she spoke to her Daddy and he said "Has she been here all night?" It cracked me up...but definitely one of those you had to be there moments
