Christmas Chaos ...

So - we got together with this Bithell's this weekend to do our Christmas together before they leave for Canada.

Our gatherings are always very loud but very fun:)

I couldn't post today without adding a pic of this!

I hope you enjoyed the posts - and the pics. It's been a LONG time since all three of my kids have napped. It probably will be a long time before it happens again. But I promise to post when we get back from the cruise with Christmas and vacation pics - even if it means locking the kids in the basement with their new toys :)

Snip - Snip -

Why is it that my boys have more hair than my baby girl??? Cohen had the funkiest little fly-aways over his ears and he was starting to get a little messy in the back. So, of course, I had to have it trimmed this weekend.

He did so well (Could've been the sucker in his mouth!)

I promise to get a good after shot this weekend!

The Griswold Tree ...

So - a few Saturdays ago, we set out to find the PERFECT tree for Christmas.

It was close to 27 degrees that day ... so as the minutes went by, we started to look for a tree that didn't have two trunks ... then a tree that didn't have a HUGE gaping empty spot on the back.

I think our lips were frozen and the poor kids were SUCH troopers. Would you believe that we left the tree farm with NOTHING. Then we went to a local lot ... and left with NOTHING. And then went to Home Depot ... yep, NOTHING. We ended up forking over an arm and a leg at a local nursery, but we got a great tree. Of course I don't have a picture of it. But the pictures of us hunting for it are more fun anyway :)

So much to do ... so little time ...

I don't even have time to breathe these days, let alone post ...

Tomorrow is Kennedy's Christmas party at school. Friday is her Christmas program, Cameron's Christmas party (that I am organizing) and then we leave for Louisville by 3:30. The kids are SOOOO excited to go to Kentucky - and we get to meet Nana's new dog, Gus!

When we get home, Christmas is right around the corner!!! I need to have the invitations out for Aunt Natalie's baby shower (which is Jan 31st) by the time we leave for the cruise on Jan 3!!! My gosh, haven't even had time to get excited about that. Not sure if the kids have clothes that fit them or not ... we'll find out next week :)

Then we get home from the cruise Jan 10th. The baby shower is the 31st and then Cohen's first birthday party is the next week. Feb 7th. Yep, you read that right, my baby will be ONE before I know it. If I wasn't so darn busy to think about anything right now, I think I'd have to be medicated because I really am not liking the idea at all. I don't like that the next 6 weeks will fly by like 6 days and next thing you know Cameron will be SEVEN and Kennedy will be FIVE. Let's not talk about that now ...

Let's enjoy Christmas ...

And the pics of Cohen's first haircut, and all of the other things that we've been doing the past few weeks when I haven't been able to update the blog ;) I'll get to them asap ...

Thankful ...

Well, I actaully have a few spare minutes and I thought I'd share some pics of our Thanksgiving weekend with Nana, Grandpa Bill, and Aunts Amy and Lindsey.

Nana, Amy and Lindsey prepared Grandmother Gresham's rolls...

Cameron set the table ...

Cohen enjoyed the fire :)

Before we stuffed ourself - we posed for a pic!

Then Kennedy enjoyed Guitar Hero with Nana.

and Rudy enjoyed playing with Lindsey :)

It's Christmastime!!!

We went to see Santa last week ... Cohen LOVED him. It was so cute. And no one was afraid - that was a first!!!
