It was a great Christmas. It came super fast and left behind a huge chaotic mess, but when watching the holiday through your child's eyes it makes all the work put into it, so very worth it. Christmas eve was at my parents house, I really look forward to it every year. I was so freaking exhausted I didn't take a single picture, and now of course regret that.
Christmas morning spent at home with just my little family. I remembered Christmas eve night that I didn't think far enough ahead to plan a special breakfast for Christmas morning. Here it is a week later and I could not tell you what any of us ate (except Kathryn, of course) :-) I want to find a good, easy traditional Christmas breakfast that I can prepare every year. Any ideas would be appreciated!
Christmas day, afternoon spent at my in-laws. Ryan and Kathryn's cousins, Ruby - nearly 8 years old and Kimberly, 3 - really entertain Ryan. Especially Kimberly. Those two are starting to play really well together. It's fun to watch.
Other stuff. . . Little Kathryn hits 5 months old tomorrow. The very last picture is her, napping in her crib for the very first time. 90% of the time she'll put herself to sleep without needing to be rocked. She still wakes up every 3 to 4 hours every night.... on a few RARE occasions she'll give us 7 hours. It's starting to catch up with me. Months of interrupted sleep. As hard as it is to cope with night after night, I have Ryan as an example that all too soon she'll be an all night sleeper. I am trying to enjoy every moment of her infancy. It's going to be gone in a flash.
My hopes for 2010:
My little family and my extended family stay healthy.
Paul finds a good job.
I get myself back into running shape. I so very much want to be able to keep up with my Dad - who can kick my butt with his running!
Happy 2010 everyone. :-)
Christmas morning
Ryan, helping Joey with her stocking
So very excited about the fruit bar he found in his stocking
The kids
Grandma Soon
Papa and his grandkids. Ryan was oh so uncooperative for this photo. This was the best of 4 attempts!
Papa and Kathryn. Kathryn, wearing her very first pair of tights! Gotta love little girls in tights.
New PJ's, she wears them well.

simple breakfast suggestion: pop tarts!
french toast! It's easy and yummy! Hey, if I say it's easy than it must be. I absolutely love the pic of Ryan and the fruit bar. His excitement is completely out there! Super cute. And, what's up with your kids and rosy cheeks. Love it!
