Our Merry Christmases....

We celebrated an astounding FIVE times again this year! Between traveling all over the central and southern portions of Indiana, we were all relieved to return to the first week of normalcy today! It was awesome to see family, but even more awesome to see Claire opening gifts with excitement...ripping! Once she got the gist of it, she was totally in to it! She tore all bows off first and then took the paper off of the gifts carefully...one piece at a time... And she had to hand each piece to Mom! She got some wicked cool gifts including a cute green chair, a HUGE toybox, tons of fun toys and more! Santa even brought her a potty!!! (But we're not pressing that one...she sits on it before bath time...and doesn't pee in it!)

We're thrilled to have such a great daughter! She runs and plays until she can go no more. Repeating is her favorite hobby, and you can get her to say ANYTHING (this week: awesome, soowwy (for sorry), and terd (because I called her a turd yesterday!) She is so hilarious...and learns something new EVERYDAY!

Hopefully I can post pictures soon...either blogger isn't cooperating or Time Warner Cable needs to be yelled at (why do I pay for high-speed internet if it is as slow as dial up????) But, for those of you who have Facebook (or know someone who does....Mom, Jeff and Mona...), there are newer ones there from Christmas!

And for those of you who are looking at the blog ONLY because my Facebook status indicated that I updated....ha ha! I got you!!! There aren't any pictures!!!!
