WAY behind on blog posts!

So it has been a while since I've posted a blog! We have been busy with the Holidays, winter bugs (cold, flu, etc), traveling to see family in PA, and of course football! We had a wonderful Christmas at home this year. We were able to spend time with family around the holidays, but Christmas morning stayed in and relaxed. This was the first year the kids were really this in to opening presents. Jake just loved opening and giving gifts. And Hailey would get so excited about each gift that she didn't want to open the next! They were so cute.
Jake has been loving school, and all of his friend's at school. The teachers always say how wonderful he is, and of course I agree! =) Hailey is getting so big and smart that people are asking me more and more if they are twins! She is apparently pretty tall for age (not sure where she gets that from!) according to Dr. Julie at her 2 year old check up in December. She is talking well beyond her age and does anything and everything to catch up to her big brother. They just love playing together and get upset when they aren't together. They also LOVE spending time with Grandma and Papa! We go over to see them several times a week. They seem concerned if we haven't seen Grandma for a day or so. haha, we have to make up for the several months Grandma and Papa were traveling and we couldn't see them!
This coming weekend "baby michael" (my sister Heather's baby) is coming for an overnight visit (well 2 nights actually) and we couldn't be more excited!! I have been cleaning today to get ready for him! Jake and Hailey keep talking about him, and I can't wait to spoil and cuddle him!! This weekend we will also be celebrating Papa and Jason's birthdays! Well Jason and Heather will be away for a romantic weekend without Michael, but we will be sure to eat some cake and ice cream for them!
I guess that is all for now! I am currently downloading hundreds of pictures on to my computer that have been on my camera patiently waiting to be shared with friends and family... haha, so I will upload those soon, promise! More blogs coming soon!
