Corley is growing

Isn't she cute? We think so. I can't believe how much she has grown. Thank-you Aunt Mollie and Uncle John for the rattle. Corley plays with it all the time...she loves it as much as Caden did. And she sits at the table with us now (playing in the high chair) and watches everyone eat. Maybe Santa will bring her some food!

Not-so-good photos

I hope you enjoy these. This was one of our at home photo sessions for the Christmas card. I laughed the entire time and decided that it wasn't worth the frustration any longer. Poor Corley was MAD by the end. And Caden wasn't overly helpful. I am sure most of you can remember similar experiences with your own.

Thanksgiving Feast

Caden's school celebrated Thanksgiving with a feast for the children. The classes performed a few musical selections - Caden did not. He cried and whined the entire time, but did enjoy the food afterward. Imagine that...he is our child for sure. Michael and I asked a million questions to determine why he was so unpleasant during the performance. We later determined he was sick after getting a temperature of 102.7 after his nap. With a visit to our pediatrician we discovered that he had tonsillitis. This began our Thanksgiving week and it ended with a virus. Vomiting right after Thanksgiving dinner with the family was not our idea of fun. I am learning that kids are always sick. Or is it just mine?
