Christmas & New Years!

We also spent New Year's at the Poconos with the Thomas family and the Abernathy family which was a lot of fun but tiring because Caleb was up at 5 o'clock the first day and 430 the second day which doesn't leave a whole lot of sleep for mommy! They all had fun though and the kids played really well together and we even got to get out to make a trip to the swimming pool. Caleb tried to dance with Annalise on New Year's Eve when we were playing the music he kept holding her hand and pulling her around and dancing with her he loves to dance! We had a really nice Christmas ! Juliet seem to be really excited about Santa this year and she came down the stairs and saw all the presents and the first thing she said was "Santa brought me my kid scissors!" Out of all the presents that someone that she saw first which was really cute because it was so simple. She also really enjoyed her telescope and her science kit Caleb got up very early Christmas morning earlier than everyone so mean him play downstairs with his toys laid out he pretty much picked everything that was for him and had me open it. I think he thought every morning should start like this is the next two mornings he got up really early and start to look for presents but there were none just the ones he already got! Barb also stayed with us for a little less a week during Christmas and we host a Christmas eve and my mom has to Christmas kids got to see both their grandparents or the fun. The kids also enjoyed playing with Barb's new dog Lily and now Caleb and Juliet seem more at ease around dogs when we are around them.  Lily also took a quick Christmas trip to our neighbors house but will shortly returned all is well that ends well! The last photos are juliet at the cat shelter we volunteer at together every other Tuesday!
