Holidays 2008--Christmas

HO, HO, HO!!! Merry Christmas!

We had such a wonderful Christmas! Norah turned 6 weeks old on Christmas Day, so we were able to get out and do a little more. Adam, Britain, Jack, Bryan and Wendy all came home, and it was their first time to meet Norah. It was also Bryan and Wendy's first time to see Jack, so we all had a blast hanging out and enjoying the babies. Emma and Caroline are big enough now that Christmas is really fun with them, too...it was so much fun watching them open gifts! I got to visit with several out of town friends over the week, too, and that was so great! Norah did really well, but she ended up catching a cold from me and Russell, and a couple of weeks later it turned into an ear infection...her first time to be sick. We went to the doctor and got an antibiotic, though, and she was finally better after about a week. We were so glad to have our happy girl back! I took SO many pictures over the holidays that it was really hard to choose which ones to include here, but I did my best.

Knox told me today that he can't wait to see Norah again! And he's plotting to give Mackenzie a big ol' hug when she's not looking! :)
