Christmas!

I love Christmas, but I feel like I'm fighting for Christmas spirit this year. We have been swamped in life and I can barely keep the house clean let alone finish putting the lights on the tree. Nate and Ashley got sick the week before Thanksgiving, and are still sick. They both have RSV and I am so sick of breathing treatments. I'm due for another with Nate right now--he doesn't like them either. On the bright side, I finished the Nativity Event and I think it went well. I'm enjoying spending more time at home, now if only I could get Justin here too, we could have a perfect holiday season!

Well, that explains it! Bless your hearts, Kate. That is a tough row to hoe! I hope your family starts feeling better and that the Christmas spirit makes a grand entrance soon.

Hey, I'm so curious to know if Cat Yeates had her baby yet and if it was a girl or a boy? Catherine, if you see this comment don't leave me hanging. :) I was secretly hoping for a girl for you guys, but you certainly do have a knack for making handsome little boys!

I'm sorry half your kids are sick and still feeling it. I hope you can get into Christmas soon... I know I"ve really struggled with it in years past. I'm glad your Nativity Event went well ... I'm sure its a huge load off your shoulders for a few weeks!

we're going to miss you guys for Christmas this year! Hopefully things will get better and you'll get a second to breathe!

Katie, hope things are getting progressively better for you and your kiddos.

Congratulations Catherine! Wahoo! I LOVE her name! She is probably spoiled by all those big brothers. :) Merry Christmas!

My poor babies are sick and I cant help. I am sooo sorry. I hope everything settles down soon. We miss all of you.

The thing that is unbelievable about you is that you don't even seem rattled. You pull this off like you pull everything else off. You make it look easy. We're praying hard that the kids feel better soon and that you and Justin get to hang out some time soon.
