Days lately have been quite full, and there is much to blog about (or at least lots and lots of pictures to share), so I'm just going to go at it one event at a time until I'm all caught up -- starting with Cookie Night 2012. While this happened exactly one week ago today, it certainly feels like it was a year ago -- but in a good kind of way, you know? (Well, good minus the ER visit....) Each day has been an adventure, for sure!
Last Saturday, Mom and Dad watched the girls so Chris and I could complete a frenzied last-minute Christmas shopping expedition, and somehow I managed to get everything wrapped. Then Saturday night, Chris's family came over for a pre-wedding dinner.
Sunday, Jennifer and Tyler got married - pictures to come!! :)
Monday was Christmas Eve, which we celebrated all day with Chris's family at our house. Then that night, my parents came over so my Mom could make her world-class annual baked ziti, which was better than EVER this year!
Tuesday was Christmas, spent at my Grandma's house with my family.
Wednesday was spent in the ER, because I was having chest pains I had been ignoring for a while, which turned out to be due to a sprained chest (who knew that could happen?!) that likely resulted from my fall downstairs. I'm still hoping I don't come down with typhoid fever (or whatever it was that all the Oregon Trail people used to catch) after my ER visit -- I was surrounded by some hardcore sick people!! Ugh!!!!! (Surely you see why I never pursued a career in any sort of medical profession - ha!)
Yesterday was the first of what I hope will be some more BFF reunions over Christmas break, this time featuring Jenn and Rachie. I got to meet Rachie's baby, Jonathan, for the first time! Also, last night Rachie and I went to go meet Lee and Jennifer A.'s new baby, Ryan!
Today, it's just the girls and I. They're napping and I'm eating lunch, which means I'll start catching up in 3... 2... 1....
And doesn't she wear it well? |
Cuddling with their Daddy the following morning... intensely engrossed in some Sesame Street watching (thank you, Netflix! Sesame Street on demand!). (E on left, T on right) |
All smiles now! |
This picture and the next two are (obvi) from the camera of none other than Melissa herself. Here Evie is excitedly leaning forward for her first-ever bite of cookie. Huge moment, y'all!! And, like her Mom, she has a sweet tooth - so she loved it immensely! |
Tamsie, like her Dad, is apparently not a fan of sweets, however. |
