The 4 Amigos

It's only January 30th and I am just now talking about Christmas. Things have been such a whirlwind I just don't have much time to blog. I love to blog and keep up with life happenings though.  This Christmas was good but oh so tiring. Caleb couldn't get out so trying to shop and do Christmas was just hard. We got it worked out though thanks to family coming over to our house so we didn't have to get caleb out but could still celebrate as a family. P had a blast of course. He loved everything he got. I think this year one of his favorite parts was making cookies. He talked about it forever. He just had so much fun making cookies for Santa and putting carrots out for the reindeer. Our Christmas in a nutshell was spent at home and low key and honestly I loved it. Not having to rush all over was a nice change. Can't wait for next Christmas when C will be 1:)

 





Making Santa cookies,excuse the tired look

I never really put hospital pictures on the blog. They all have been from my phone. I finally decided to put some up since this is our scrapbook.  When C looks back one day I want him to see the good pictures..lol!  Looking back at these pictures it reminds me of how far we have come and it's hard to believe that's us 2 short month's ago.  Our little C is a fighter and can't believe just how much he has changed. I remember getting wheeled into the NICU for the first time and I just started crying at the sight of the babies and then I laid eyes on C and Joe and I just hugged and cried. He was perfect and tiny!!That is one of the hardest sights I have ever seen. Seeing your baby with iv's and machines is not a fun day.. Having to put a gown on and scrub your hands and ask for permission to get your baby out of the crib is just a gut wrenching feeling but that's the hand we were dealt. Leaving the hospital without him was the second hardest thing I had to do. I would never wish that on anyone. The NICU nurses will always hold a special place in our hearts,they all were so wonderful!!  Just a little look back.

Next I hope to finally post about Christmas and P's 4th birthday.
